To take effective measures to resolutely curb the spread of the epidemic. The Party Central Committee reviewed the situation, comprehensively researched and judged, put forward the general requirements of firm confidence, mutual aid, scientific control, and precise policy in a timely manner, and formulated strategic strategies for epidemic prevention and control in a timely manner, and made improving the treatment and cure rates, reducing the infection rate, and the death rate as outstanding tasks. We will take Wuhan and Hubei as the main battlefields across the country, strengthen unified command of epidemic prevention in Wuhan and Hubei, coordinate efforts in other areas, strengthen emergency protection of medical supplies and daily necessities, effectively maintain social stability, and strengthen publicity and education and public opinion. Guide and actively seek the support of the international community.

Xi Jinping emphasized that the new crown pneumonia epidemic was a major public health emergency with the fastest spread, the widest range of infections, and the most difficult prevention and control in China since the founding of New China. For us, this is a crisis and a big test. After hard work, the situation of epidemic prevention and control is expanding. Practice has proved that the Party Central Committee's judgment on the epidemic situation is accurate, all work arrangements are timely, and the measures taken are effective and effective. The effectiveness of prevention and control work has once again demonstrated the significant advantages of the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the socialist system with Chinese characteristics.

Xi Jinping pointed out that the new crown pneumonia epidemic will inevitably have a greater impact on the economy and society. The more it is at this time, the more comprehensive, dialectical, and long-term perspective is needed to view China's development, and the more it is necessary to strengthen and strengthen confidence. Taken together, the fundamentals of China's long-term economic improvement have not changed, and the impact of the epidemic is short-term and generally controllable. Xi Jinping put forward eight requirements for orderly resumption of work and production. First, the implementation of zoning, grading, and accurate resumption of work and production. Low-risk areas should adjust their prevention and control strategies to external defense inputs as soon as possible to fully restore production and living order, medium-risk areas should resume work and production in an orderly manner according to the prevention and control situation, and high-risk areas should continue to focus their efforts on epidemic prevention and control. Second, we will strengthen the adjustment of macro policies. Active fiscal policies should be more active and proactive, and continue to study and introduce phased and targeted tax and fee reduction policies to help small, medium and micro enterprises overcome difficulties. Prudent monetary policy should pay more attention to flexibility and moderation, make good use of existing financial support policies, and introduce new policy measures in a timely manner. Third, comprehensively strengthen employment stabilization measures. It is necessary to reduce burdens, stabilize jobs, and expand employment, aim at prominent contradictions such as severe shortage of work in some enterprises, high pressure for job stabilization, and difficulty in employment of key groups, and support flexible employment through multiple channels, and do a good job of graduate employment. Fourth, we must resolutely complete the task of fighting poverty. Efforts should be made to overcome the impact of the epidemic, pay close attention to the implementation of key tasks, help the poor labor force return to work in an orderly manner, support leading poverty alleviation enterprises and poverty alleviation workshops to resume work as soon as possible, and accelerate the establishment and improvement of a mechanism to prevent poverty. Fifth, promote the resumption of work and production. It is necessary to implement an accurate prevention and control strategy based on zoning and classification, open up the flow of people and logistics jams, release restrictions on freight logistics, and promote the coordinated resumption of production and production in all links of the industrial chain. It is necessary to actively expand domestic effective demand, speed up the construction progress of projects under construction and newly started, and strengthen the guarantee of labor, land and funds. Sixth, we should seize the opportunity to do a good job of spring agricultural production. We must promptly solve the outstanding problems that affect spring ploughing, and organize the production, circulation, and supply of agricultural materials to ensure that agricultural production does not miss the agricultural time. Seventh, earnestly protect the basic people's livelihood. It is necessary to ensure the supply of main and non-staple foods, strengthen the protection of the poor, and give special attention to patients, especially families whose relatives have been killed. We must make overall plans for medical treatment of patients with other diseases. Eighth, stabilize the basic foreign investment in foreign trade. We must make full use of compliant foreign trade policy tools such as export tax rebates and export credit insurance to ensure the smooth operation of the foreign trade industrial chain and supply chain, grasp the landing of major foreign investment projects, expand the opening of financial and other service industries, and continue to optimize the business environment. Enhance confidence in long-term foreign investment operations.
