People are generally no longer required to present their nucleic acid test results or health codes when entering public places, according to China’s latest guidelines on COVID-19 epidemic control measures published on Wednesday.
Test results and health codes still need to be shown to enter care homes, welfare institutes, hospitals, kindergartens and primary and high schools, according to the guidelines issued by the State Council’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism aimed at further optimizing epidemic control measures.
In addition, people who travel to other regions of China will no longer be tested for COVID-19 upon arrival, nor will they be checked for nucleic acid test results or health codes during their trip, the guidelines said.
