The shaking was too strong for me to stay standing, or even squat. I called my family immediately when I felt the quake.

地震太剧烈了，我没办法站稳，也没办法蹲下。所以我就赶紧给家里打电话。

There are currently 7 relocation sites in the earthquake-hit area, where many volunteers, military personnel and medical workers are providing help. The relocation sites were equipped with folding beds, blankets and food. Local authorities have also dispatched people to help with restoring power and communication networks.

目前，震中地区规模较小的集中型、分散型安置点已达到七处。许多志愿者、民兵队伍和医务工作者正在现场忙碌，为灾民们提供保障。安置点配备了折叠床、毯子和食物。从雅安等地调派的应急发电、通讯设备，也能满足安置点内所需。

We are asking people not to head into Baoxing and Lushan Counties, to avoid getting in the way of rescue vehicles.

希望大家不要前往宝兴和芦山，避免和救灾救援的车辆发生冲突。因为车流量比较大，如果有个别车辆确实需要到芦山、宝兴，请选择好相应的路线绕行。

According to the Sichuan Seismological Bureau, yesterday's 6.1-magnitude earthquake occurred in the same spot, and is a long term aftershock of the 7.0 Lushan earthquake in 2013. The bureau says the chances of another large quake in the area is unlikely in the near future.

据四川地震局所述，昨天（6/1）发生的6.1级地震，是2013年雅安芦山7.0级地震的余震。国家气象局表示，短期内芦山余震区再次发生更大地震的可能性不大。

2.SHANGHAI COURIER SERVICE PROVIDERS COMING BACK ON STREAM

上海快递已恢复正常运营

Postal and courier【快递公司】 services in Shanghai are springing back to life. 28 express delivery companies have reopened and are operating at about 70 percent of pre-lockdown capacity. Zhang Hong has more.

上海的主要品牌邮政快递企业正在有序复工。目前有28家快递公司已经恢复营业，运力已经达到平时日均水平的70%左右。记者张泓为您带来更多报道。

Delivery companies have made numerous arrangements to ensure adherence to pandemic protocols【协议】.

快递公司已做出许多调整，以确保符合疫情防控标准。

Wu Qiang, Director

East Fengxian Distribution Center, ZTO Express

吴强中通奉贤东部网点负责人

The 140 employees here have to live in the distribution center. There is no other place to accommodate them, so they can only sleep in their cars.

这140人全部住在院子里，目前院子里没有住宿条件，所以小哥都是自己睡在自己的车上。

The distribution center says about 70 percent of its workers have returned, and they follow strict nucleic acid test requirements, which has lowered delivery volume to around 45 percent pre-lockdown.

快递配送中心说，复工率超过七成，但配送效率只有之前的45%左右。快递小哥需要持有48小时核酸阴性证明才能上路，他们每天都会前往园区指定的地点进行核酸检测。

Wu Qiang, Director

East Fengxian Distribution Center, ZTO Express

吴强中通奉贤东部网点负责人

We must take a PCR test and antigen self-test each morning, which means less time to work.

每天上午我们都要去做核酸检测还有自测抗原，这其实缩短了我们的工作时长。

Qin Jun, Delivery Worker

East Fengxian Distribution Center, ZTO Express

秦军中通奉贤东部网点快递员

To reduce the risk of infection, us deliverymen usually do the PCR test after other staff.

我们怕交叉感染，每次都等园区做的差不多了，我们再过来做。

Couriers encounter other difficulties when delivering parcels as not all compounds allow residents to come out to sign for them.

快递员在投递包裹时还会遇到其他困难，各个小区的最后一公里派送并未完全畅通。

Guo Huaicheng, Courier

郭怀成快递员

Some people are not at home and ask me to drop their parcels at the gate.

各种情况都有。有些情况是属于人不在家，叫我放门口。

Mr. Liu, Courier

刘先生快递员

I'm heading to the next compound. I will take this parcel until I can contact the consignee.

像这种联系不上的快件我就会带回去，等联系到客户了再送，然后我会去下一个小区。

Courier service compnaies say only 70 percent of parcels can be delivered for the time being. Since most delivery stations in the city have not reopened, many couriers have to bring parcels back to distribution centers. An industry inside says it will take time for those delivery stations to reopen.

快递公司表示，目前快递网点的配送成功率约七成，现如今，全市的菜鸟驿站都处于停业状态，许多快递员不得不把包裹带回网点。对此，业内人士表示，按照目前的防疫规定，"驿站"开门还需等待时日。

Xu Yong, Vice President

China Communications & Transportation Association Express Service

徐勇中国交通运输协会快运分会副会长

Many delivery stations don't meet pandemic requirements. It's quite difficult for them to manage the flow of parcels and do disinfection work. They also are not able to offer food and accommodation to employees.

很多配送情况主要是达不到防疫要求。驿站的话要进行消杀。如果要进行这些人员去管理的话，难度是非常大的，而且不便于管理。一个是快递员吃饭住宿问题解决不了，一个是网点消杀问题解决不了。

The Shanghai Postal Bureau says all courier businesses are expected to be back at full strength by the middle of this month, adding EMS is already available.

上海邮政局表示，所有的快递业务预计将于本月中旬全面恢复。目前上海邮政已有序恢复个人寄递EMS特快专递服务。
