It is a rumor that ＂Shanghai conducts stepped closed-loop and carpet screening＂.

　　On the evening of June 8, a "closed-loop step-by-step residential measures were carried out in all districts and counties of the city, and nucleic acid detection was carried out once or twice in 48 hours … … The positive cell was isolated for 2+14 days, and the message that the positive cell was closely connected with 2+12 "was spread in the circle group. There are also rumors that "when carpet screening is implemented in Shanghai, every residence will be closed for 48 hours, and the second nucleic acid test will be done. If it is positive, it will be closed for 12 days", and a list of key areas of the community will be closed at 12 o’clock tonight is attached. Shanghai rumor platform received many messages from netizens, hoping to verify the authenticity.

　　In response to this rumor, the Office of the Leading Group for Epidemic Prevention and Control in COVID-19, Shanghai (hereinafter referred to as "the Municipal Office for Prevention and Control") replied that the online rumor that "closed-loop measures of stepped communities are being carried out one after another in all districts and counties of the city", "carpet screening will be implemented in Shanghai" and "List of key areas of communities to be closed at 12 o’clock tonight" are all rumors.

　　When the Shanghai rumor platform was verified, it was found that these so-called notices were actually "old news". Among them, the "stepped closed-loop management measures" appeared verbatim in some self-media articles in March this year. The statement that "Shanghai will carry out carpet screening" and "List of key areas of residential areas to be closed at 12 o’clock tonight" were not official documents after traceability investigation by relevant departments. They were spread on the Internet in April this year. In fact, some netizens took the initiative to point out that the list is rough and there are other words, such as writing Pudong Beicai as "Northern Cuisine", which is not credible.

　　However, the Shanghai rumor platform also noticed that recently, some towns and towns in Shanghai have indeed issued nucleic acid screening or temporary control notices, including Nanjing West Road Street in Jing ‘an District, Hunan Road Street in Xuhui District, Ruijin Second Road Street in Huangpu District, etc. Temporary control is implemented, and all personnel in the relevant areas need to stay indoors and conduct nucleic acid testing once a day. After learning from the local departments, the above measures were formulated in different regions according to the development of the local epidemic situation, and they were not part of the city-wide unified arrangement, nor were they the so-called "Huangpu, Xuhui and Jing’ an sealed 7+7 together" as interpreted by some netizens.

　　At present, Shanghai is gradually returning to normal production and living order. With the acceleration of the resumption of work and production, the turnover of personnel is frequent, and the risk of epidemic rebound still exists. According to the development and trend of epidemic prevention and control, Shanghai will dynamically adjust the corresponding prevention and control measures. I hope that the general public will continue to give understanding and cooperation to jointly protect the hard-won anti-epidemic achievements.
