Chinese Premier Li Keqiang inspected the novel coronavirus epidemic prevention and control work at Beijing West Railway Station on February 14, 2020.

Li called for taking multiple measures to stagger people's return trips to Beijing after the Chinese Lunar New Year holiday, to minimize SARS-CoV-2 virus transmission.

He also learned about protective measures taken on trains and inspected the station's work of body temperature monitoring.

Premier Li also heard a report by officials that measures to stagger trips have effectively curbed the transmission of the virus that could have been possibly caused by travel peaks.
