According to the latest news from the National Health Commission, from 0 to 24:00 on August 4, 31 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the Central Government) and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps reported 85 new confirmed cases, including 23 imported cases and local cases. With 62 cases, there are currently 5 high-risk areas and 167 medium-risk areas across the country.
The domestic epidemic broke out in many places and spread rapidly. The confirmed cases in developed countries abroad also showed a significant increase. However, the mastermind behind the scenes is the “Delta” virus, which is more susceptible to infection and spread. Even existing vaccines cannot provide complete immunity against it.
In order to better control the epidemic, China has implemented precise blockades in areas that will not affect production and life as much as possible, hoping to control the epidemic. According to the latest news, some cities and counties in Henan Province have blocked highway intersections, and individual villages have begun to close roads. Some areas have adopted power rationing measures to restrict the start of personnel-intensive industries, causing companies to be unable to produce at full capacity. The speed, scope and impact of this wave of epidemic spread have exceeded everyone’s expectations. Under the influence of the blockade measures, some companies reported that they have temporarily encountered difficulties in transporting raw materials and finished products.
Despite facing another blockade, the person in charge of a textile company in Henan behaved relatively calmly. The impact of the spread of the virus is indeed great, but the impact on the company is small. He believes that the government’s strict control measures The epidemic will soon be under control and production will return to normal. An epidemic as severe as last year will never happen again. After all, my country’s vaccination rate has reached a high level.
Some traders believe that cotton, which is currently performing strongly, may experience a correction with the help of this wave of epidemics. Only by making adjustments can cotton rise more healthily, otherwise the room for growth will be limited. </p
