Some people think living in a low epidemic risk region means protective measures such as wearing a mask and frequently washing hands are no longer necessary.
Low-risk regions are not risk-free, said He Qinghua, an official with the National Health
Commission's disease prevention and control bureau. Taking personal protective measures is still necessary for people living in low-risk regions, especially those just downgraded from high- and medium-risk regions.
