The emergency epidemic prevention sector in every province, city and county supplies on a preferential basis the anti-epidemic materials, reserved to cope with the global health crisis, to the medical workers and preventive and curative organs taking the lead in the combat against the malignant virus.

Nearly 500 rapid mobile anti-epidemic groups and rapid diagnosis and treatment groups are engaged in the nationwide work to confirm and treat the infected persons.

The hygienic and epidemic prevention organs launched a more vigorous information service among inhabitants after a standard treatment guide was issued by the state, and the legal organs are tightening the legal control over any possible negative practices.

Officials of the Party and power organs across the country put primary efforts into the work for minimizing inconvenience and suffering of the inhabitants and stabilizing their life.

Grain and vegetable transport teams were organized and mobile stalls deployed in every ri and village to promote the convenience in inhabitants' life, and many officials and citizens are involved in service activities throughout the country.

In particular, steps are being taken to take care of those involved in the epidemic prevention work and help the households in difficult conditions, and communist virtues and traits are being displayed throughout the country.

Meanwhile, major projects like the construction of 10 000 flats in the Hwasong area and the Ryonpho Greenhouse Farm have been propelled as scheduled, and agricultural workers and helpers are doing the immediate farming such as rice-transplantation in a responsible manner while struggling against the malignant epidemic and drought.
