Pyongyang, February 24 (KCNA) -- The central emergency anti-epidemic sector in the DPRK has taken timely measures to further tighten the emergency anti-epidemic system and discipline amid the global pandemic crisis.

It has waged dynamic information activities to make sure that all officials, working people and other inhabitants receive with high ideological consciousness the intention of the Party that set the emergency anti-epidemic work as this year's top priority task and behave in unison with shared awareness of the gravity of the pandemic crisis.

It has directed efforts into developing effective disinfection methods and system and disinfectants and stepping up the building of special disinfecting establishments.

Institutions for preventive and curative medical care have disseminated common hygienic knowledge and anti-epidemic information among citizens, conducting thorough medical examinations of employees of the units and inhabitants under their charge.

Anti-epidemic organs have fulfilled their responsibility in preventing various kinds of diseases and fatal epidemics like bird flu that may break out in the period of seasonal change.

Different institutions and industrial establishments have scrupulously organized the work, as required by the anti-epidemic rules, while conducting hygienic information activities and disinfection on a daily and planned basis.

The passenger service sector has prepared plenty of disinfectants and disinfectors to thoroughly sterilize vehicles, ensuring that passenger service is done responsibly, as specified in the anti-epidemic rules.

The emergency anti-epidemic units across the country have made sure that working people and other inhabitants strictly observe the anti-epidemic steps taken by the state, and established a more stringent system of resolving any abnormal issues after notifying them to the relevant organ in time. -0-
