Pyongyang, August 14 (KCNA) -- As the world health crisis worsens and wet weather lingers in the country, the emergency epidemic prevention units at all levels in the DPRK further intensify their work.

The central emergency epidemic prevention unit scrupulously organizes the work for making all sectors and units keep their anti-epidemic posture during the rainy season, true to the idea and spirit of the plenary meetings of the Party Central Committee which stressed the need to keep maximum vigilance and strictly observe the rules.

Now that it rains often and heavy rain is anticipated in some areas due to the seasonal rainy front, it rapidly outlines and notifies the instructions for taking preventive measures. It also proactively disseminates explanatory and hygienic information.

The emergency epidemic prevention units in provinces, cities and counties take strong preliminary measures to make sure that there would be no defect in the prevention work during the rainy season.

They put the test of water quality, cleaning and disinfection of reservoirs, water tanks and wells on a regular basis and pay deep attention to making residents always clean up their environment.

All units enhance the responsibility and role of their hygiene information workers to correctly conduct disinfection and temperature measurement, urging their employees to always wear masks as specified in the rules, keep social distancing and abide by the rules of health including disinfection of hands.
