Facing the severe and complicated situation of COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control, the United Front Work Department of Wenzhou ouhai district was on duty, and the epidemic prevention and control system in the area of folk religion kept running at a high speed 24 hours a day. All cadres in the United Front Work System exchanged the “hard index” for the “safety index” in the area of folk religion, and jointly built a safety barrier. The epidemic prevention and control work in the area of folk religion in ouhai district was stable and orderly as a whole.
First, strictly implement the “double suspension” provisions. On November 26th, ouhai district issued a notice about temporarily shutting down closed places, and the District Religious Affairs Bureau quickly deployed it, and immediately issued a notice to all religious places and towns and streets, demanding that all religious places and folk belief activity places in the whole region be closed and cancelled. Religious personnel are required to give full play to their own advantages, guide believers to take the overall situation into account and cooperate with the epidemic prevention and control work. We will comprehensively carry out a three-level joint prevention and control system for districts, towns, streets and villages, and resolutely guard against death.
The second is to guide the daily inspection work. According to the “double suspension” work requirements, the United Front Work Department of ouhai district has continuously strengthened the emergency command force and upgraded the leadership of epidemic prevention organizations in religious places. According to the “Nine-Long Contact System” of the United Front Work Department of Ouhai District Committee, 13 towns and streets in the whole district were divided into 6 groups, and the deputy ministers of the United Front Work Department led a team to conduct spot checks on religious (folk belief) activities, strictly control the epidemic situation and strictly implement the “double suspension”. If one place is found, it will be ordered to shut down by the local town street, and the relevant departments will file a case for investigation, and the responsible person of the relevant place will be held accountable. During the period, the United Front Work Department of the District Committee, together with the members of the three-person resident group of towns and streets and village cadres, inspected more than 220 places, found one problem and rectified one.
The third is to do a good job in emergency prevention and disposal. Guide the whole region to further implement the “three-level network” responsibility system, make clear that the religious activity sites, towns, streets and communities should contact the person in charge of the package and implement specific contact tasks. Set up telephone hotlines for religious (folk belief) activities that have not been closed during the epidemic, encourage the masses to participate in supervision, and timely transmit news to the society through new media to effectively improve coverage and spread speed.
