Just in time for the world's largest annual human migration 🌍✈️, China's health authorities are breathing a sigh of relief as respiratory infections decline nationwide. The National Health Commission (NHC) reported Sunday that flu-like cases and COVID-19 rates remain low, with no new major outbreaks detected.
🔬 NHC spokesperson Mi Feng confirmed that mycoplasma pneumonia rates continue to fall, while all active cases involve known pathogens. 'The situation remains stable,' Mi stated, offering reassurance to the millions preparing to reunite with family for Lunar New Year celebrations starting February 10.
🗓️ With Lichun (Beginning of Spring) arriving February 4, the NHC dropped some seasonal wellness wisdom: 'Nurture your liver health and build vitality through outdoor activities,' Mi advised, while reminding travelers to pack extra layers for sudden temperature swings ❄️🔥.
🌨️ Weather alerts warn of nationwide rain, snow, and a major cold snap that could challenge even the coziest family reunions. Health experts urge vigilance against seasonal colds and heart health risks during the holiday rush.
📉 The positive health update comes as railway stations like Beijing West hit peak capacity this week, with travelers balancing excitement and caution as they embark on their spring festival journeys 🚆🧳.
