Summary:Abstract On November 11, 2022, the Chinese government released the Scientific and Targeted Prevention and Control Measures to Optimize COVID‐19 Response. Since that time, adjusted measures have been implemented throughout China, leading to major shifts in implementation of the national prevention and control strategy. On the basis of the current situation of the epidemic and the evolving SARS‐Cov‐2 variants, an additional 10 specifications (referred to as “the 10‐point measures”) were officially released on December 7, 2022, in an effort to further optimize the prevention and control measures. The latest adjustments pertain to the specification of: precise delineation of high‐risk areas, nucleic acid testing scheme, isolation and health monitoring, restriction and lifting of high‐risk areas, medicine supply, vaccination rollout among older people, health status of key populations, social functioning, and campus response.
