As you may be aware, the Chinese New Year holiday has been extended due to the ongoing situation with the coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan. We are taking all necessary measures to minimize the impact of the virus as an individual business.
Unfortunately, our workers have been unable to return to the production line as planned, and it is difficult to estimate when we will be able to resume normal operations. The government has extended the Spring Festival holiday until February 2 in Beijing time, and logistics operations are gradually resuming in most areas after the holiday, although the recovery in some regions, such as Hubei province, may be slower.
We want to assure you that we are taking extra precautions to ensure sterilization. The US Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases has stated that there is no evidence to suggest that the new coronavirus can be transmitted through imported goods. The immediate risk to the American public is currently considered low.
While it is known that viruses are unlikely to survive the manufacturing and transportation process, we understand that there may still be public concerns from a perception perspective.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the coronavirus outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). However, this does not mean that we should panic. It is a call for enhanced preparedness and confidence. The WHO does not recommend overreactions such as trade and travel restrictions. With international cooperation, scientific prevention and treatment measures, and precise policies, the epidemic is preventable, controllable, and curable.
China’s efforts in combating the outbreak have received commendation from around the world. The WHO Director-General, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, has stated that China’s performance has set a new standard for epidemic prevention and control globally.
We face an extraordinary challenge, but we maintain extraordinary confidence. Despite the difficulties faced by the Chinese people, we believe that we can overcome this battle.
