习近平强调，要清醒认识当前疫情防控和经济社会发展形势的复杂性，增强统筹抓好各项工作的责任感和紧迫感。The task of epidemic prevention and control in Hubei and Wuhan is still arduous, and the risk of epidemic transmission is increasing due to the increasing movement and concentration of people in other regions. We must be careful in the beginning of epidemic prevention and control, and we must not reduce our vigilance against the epidemic or our requirements for prevention and control。At the same time, we need to deepen international cooperation on epidemic prevention and control and play our role as a responsible major country。It is necessary to accelerate all aspects of economic and social development, promote the resumption of work and production in a precise, orderly and solid manner, achieve the orderly flow of people and property, the organic connection of production, supply and marketing, and the effective connection of domestic and foreign trade, and minimize the losses caused by the epidemic。Party committees and governments at all levels should implement the decisions and arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and coordinate the prevention and control of the epidemic and economic and social development。We must seek truth from facts, proceed from reality, and resolutely prevent formalism and bureaucracy。
The meeting stressed that efforts should be made to strengthen the prevention and control of the epidemic in Hubei Province and Wuhan City, and continue to maintain the prevention and control strategy of preventing the spread of the epidemic inside and outside。It is necessary to do a good job in community prevention and control, and guide and motivate the people to strengthen self-protection。It is necessary to strengthen the treatment and transport of patients, and all serious patients are concentrated in high-level designated hospitals for treatment。Effective measures should be taken to better meet the medical needs of patients with other diseases。It is necessary to promote better connection between supply and demand, optimize product structure and distribution methods, and make people's home life more secure。
The meeting stressed the need to focus on epidemic prevention and control in Beijing and other key areas, improve the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei joint prevention and control mechanism, and strengthen coordination in personnel flow guidance, epidemic prevention in traffic channels, and enterprises' resumption of work and production。Regions that are not key epidemic prevention and control areas need to implement targeted prevention and control at different levels。Counties with high risk levels should continue to prevent import and spread, and counties with low risk should prevent a rebound in the epidemic situation。
Conference emphasis，We will intensify efforts to tackle key problems in scientific research，Focus our strengths on solving the most pressing problems，Further efforts will be made to trace the origin and spread of the virus，Research and development of drugs, vaccines, testing reagents, and medical equipment should be closely integrated with clinical treatment and coordinated with frontline prevention and control，We will strengthen basic medical research such as pathology，Better guide clinical practice。
The meeting pointed out that the resumption of work and production should be promoted according to the epidemic zones and levels, significantly improve the production and supply of key epidemic prevention and control materials, optimize the deployment of protective materials, and ensure a safe and healthy work and living environment for employees。It is necessary to continue to adopt various modes of transportation such as "point-to-point" to allow employees to return to work as soon as possible, and strictly do a good job of epidemic prevention work in the aspects of staff eating, housing, transportation, and workshop management。We should give full play to the role of entrepreneurs and give full play to their enthusiasm and creativity。We must maintain a unified large market, promote upstream and downstream, production, supply and marketing, and large, small and medium-sized enterprises as a whole, and coordinate the resumption of work, and effectively raise the overall efficiency and level of the resumption of work and production。
The meeting stressed that the resumption of work and production should be combined with the expansion of domestic demand, so as to release suppressed and frozen consumption, cultivate and expand new and upgraded consumption generated in the epidemic prevention and control, and make up for consumption in physical goods and services。We need to choose investment projects well, strengthen supporting policies on land use, energy use and funding, and accelerate the development of major projects and infrastructure identified in the state plan。We need to increase investment in public health services and emergency supplies, and speed up the construction of new infrastructure such as 5G networks and data centers。We should focus on mobilizing the enthusiasm of private investment。

The meeting stressed that it is necessary to carry out targeted work to assist enterprises, stabilize jobs and expand employment, do a good job in the employment of key groups such as college graduates and migrant workers, and actively help individual industrial and commercial households。We will do a good job in spring agricultural production and ensure supply and prices of agricultural products。It is necessary to increase assistance to poor areas and the poor population, and give priority to attracting migrant workers from poor areas for employment during the resumption of work and production, so as to ensure the completion of the decisive task of poverty alleviation。
