China is now at the critical stage ofprevention and controlwith all Chinese nationals working as one with a strong will to curb and prevent the spread of the epidemic. Following the guidance of the Ministry of Education, Shenzhen University has decided to postpone the opening of the 2020 spring semester. The specific opening day will be notified later.
