Ezhou, Hubei Province: All Citizens Returned To Work On The Special Train For Employment

Early in the morning of March 25, Wang Jing and his family got up early, packed their bags and prepared to rush to Ezhou railway station to return to Guangzhou, the city where they work and live.

"I've been waiting too long for this day." In fact, the reporters who had been on the train to report to Shenzhen since March of the 20th century had already started to report to the members of the economic group of Ezhou since March.

On the afternoon of March 24, the headquarters for prevention and control of pneumonia caused by new coronavirus in Ezhou City, Hubei Province, issued No. 17 notice, saying that since 0:00 on March 25, community (Village) personnel in Ezhou City have resumed normal travel, and are no longer subject to the restriction of one person per household per day. Residents can pass through with masks and normal temperature monitoring. At the same time, the main urban area of Ezhou city only retains emergency standby bayonets, and other checkpoints that affect the normal production and living order are removed.

Ezhou, as a city close to Wuhan, is in the forefront of Hubei Province in the number of confirmed cases of the new epidemic. Up to 0:00 on March 24, 1394 cases were diagnosed, 59 cases died and 1328 cases were cured. Therefore, as the first batch of cities to be closed, Ezhou was relatively late to lift the ban.

Special train for employment

Before Ezhou released the notice of lifting the ban, the prevention and control headquarters of new crown pneumonia in Ezhou began to register the information of employees who were employed and returned to work in each district.

"Our community started to register on the 20th, but the first two batches were not listed. It's about a third of the time you're in the queue. " Wang Jing told the 21st century economic report that on March 22, the first special train for returning to work in Ezhou left Ezhou, taking 1320 people from Ezhou to return to work.

According to a special train information statistical table of March 22 obtained by the reporter of 21st century economic report, 740 places were allocated to 10 Street (town) offices in Echeng District of Ezhou City, and the number of applicants reached 2117. Among them, 261 people were sleeping and 479 were hard seats.

At 13:05 on March 22, the special train left Ezhou. After 14 hours, 1320 people from Ezhou returned to Guangdong and arrived at Huizhou station, Dongguan east railway station and Shenzhen east railway station respectively from 3:40 to 5:20 a.m. on March 23.

According to the arrangement, the relevant departments of Ezhou City have contacted the local prevention and control headquarters and human resources and social security departments in Shenzhen, Dongguan and Huizhou, and connected with the Ezhou chamber of Commerce in Guangdong Province and Ezhou chamber of Commerce in Shenzhen, so that the personnel returning to work in Guangdong can go back to work in a safe and orderly manner.

Since the opening of the first train on March 22, a special train for employment has left Ezhou every day. On March 23, Ezhou two special trains, more than 1860 people, left for Hangzhou and Shenzhen. According to the information of returning migrant workers collected in advance in Ezhou City, a total of 5 batches of special trains to Shenzhen and Hangzhou will be arranged before and after, and instant noodles, fruits and other travel materials will be distributed.

In addition to opening special trains, high-speed rail transit can also be selected after Ezhou is officially unsealed on March 25. Wang Jing told the 21st century economic report reporter: "through the community, you need to bring your ID card, return to work certificate, health code, green code and other related documents. You can apply for tickets when you register in the community or village where you live. However, the green train is relatively slow and needs to gather at the railway station at 10:00 a.m.; if you choose high-speed rail transit, you need to go to the neighboring provinces first and then transfer, which is relatively time-consuming Shorter. "

A smooth return

Wang Jing is currently working in an e-commerce company in Guangzhou and started his online cloud office days on February 1.

"Because the children want to go online at home, in order to complete the task assigned by the teacher, how much will affect the work." Wang Jing told the 21st century economic reporter that his department had only one Hubei employee. "When meeting a group discussion, I was often the only one who participated remotely by telephone, which would still affect the effect of the discussion.".

In order to get into his normal work as soon as possible, Wang Jing hopes to return to Guangzhou as soon as possible. So, on March 20, Wang Jing contacted the community to queue up for tickets. However, because the first two batches of special trains were not arranged, she immediately inquired about the number of high-speed rail transit trains after Ezhou was unsealed. Finally, she chose to go to Nanchang first and then transfer from Nanchang to Guangzhou. The whole journey took about 6 hours.

"In fact, I also got three tickets for today's special train through the community queue. But considering the time problem, I finally chose the high-speed rail transfer. " Wang Jing said that the community considered it well and reserved a berth for her child. She repeatedly confirmed whether she had changed to high-speed rail. In order to reduce her economic loss, she also took the initiative to contact and transfer the sleeper ticket.

In Wang Jing's opinion, the return journey was relatively smooth. "Basically the same as usual, the railway station only needs to show the green code to pass. At present, only a few large-scale stores in Ezhou are open to customers. Most of the people who open the door are supermarkets, restaurants, takeout, etc., and the number of people in the railway station is less than usual, and only two-thirds of the seats on the high-speed rail are taken. "

According to the notice of "new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic prevention and control headquarters (No. 6)" published on the official website of Guangzhou Municipal People's Government on March 22, it was clearly put forward that "personnel holding Hubei Health Code Green code can come to the ear and return to the ear orderly in Hubei low-risk areas."

That is to say, after Wang Jing returns to Guangzhou, he can show the Hubei health code without further isolation for 14 days. In addition to Guangzhou, Foshan, Shenzhen and other places have also taken measures of mutual recognition of health codes, greatly improving the convenience of verification.

"We have also issued a certificate to the community in Ezhou. After that, the community in Guangzhou will arrange to fill in the information, test the body temperature, and then issue the relevant letter of commitment." Wang Jing told reporters that after arriving in Guangzhou, it is still necessary to fill in Guangzhou's "suikang code" again, so as to facilitate the investigation in later life.

After nearly two months of city closure, Wang Jing's biggest wish now is to ensure the health of his family. "Health is more important than anything. There are too many tragedies under the epidemic. A relative was diagnosed with breast cancer before the outbreak, because the epidemic prevented normal treatment and has now spread. This epidemic has changed our values and we hope that all parts of the country can return to normal as soon as possible. "
