The Spring Festival in the Year of the Rat is destined to be unforgettable and unpeaceful for our thousands of households. In order to welcome the annual Spring Festival, we had our nails, changed our hairstyles and bought new clothes, but because of the new coronavirus, we were confined at home for the entire holiday, and we could only greet the New Year with our relatives and friends through mobile phones.

While disappointed and worried, we are also paying close attention to the development of the epidemic, and are often moved by medical workers, police officers, traffic police, sanitation, streets, takeaway boys, and other workers from all walks of life who are struggling on the front line and working hard to control the epidemic.

During the epidemic, we should also understand some legal knowledge, restrain our words and deeds, and do not touch the bottom line of the law.

First, do not spread rumors, do not spread rumors, do not believe in rumors, in extraordinary times, if you cannot fight on the front line, at least be a silent wise man.

I believe that many people will recently see on the Internet that "10,000 people in a certain city have been infected", "dozens of deaths in a certain county", "a doctor has been to Wuhan, returned to the city for daily rounds, patients are isolated, my friend's wife is from that hospital"...... Similar rumors, although proven to be false, will inevitably cause panic among people.

The Internet is not an illegal place, and many people think that sending messages in WeChat groups or other online social platforms is nothing, or that it is a kind reminder. But these rumors will not only not play a positive role, but also add a lot of anxiety, and even disrupt social order to a certain extent. At present, due to various rumors circulating in WeChat groups, many group owners have been interviewed and criticized by the public security organs. Remind everyone that during these extraordinary times, you should be rational and do not spread news from unknown sources, even if you are well-intentioned. You can't listen to the wind or rain and deliberately make up rumors. Look at the excitement is not afraid of big things, and eventually harm others and harm yourself.

If you have been to Wuhan during the epidemic, or have contact with a person infected with the new coronavirus, or even have symptoms such as fever and cough, you must take the initiative to report to relevant institutions, self-isolate, and do not have close contact with people.

It would be nice to have some practical help for those on the front lines of the fight against the virus. As Gao Xiaosong wrote on Weibo: The colder the world, the hotter we are. I believe that we will be able to overcome the difficulties together and gather together in the spring blossoms.
