Recently, Nanjing has actively responded to the COVID-19 occurrence by taking a series of prevention and control measures, which may cause some inconveniences to your work and life. We hope you can give us understanding and support on the following matters:

1. According to the Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Treatment of Infectious Diseases, the local people’s government at or above the county level shall immediately organize forces to prevent and control the disease in accordance with the prevention and control emergency plan and cut off the transmission route of the infectious disease when an infectious disease breaks out or spreads. Please cooperate with us in the prevention and control of COVID-19.

2. If your community needs centralized quarantine for medical observation, please understand and accept centralized quarantine for medical observation in the designated place subject to the instructions of the street and community staff.

3. If your community has adopted close-off management measures, please strictly carry out health monitoring at home subject to the instructions of the street and community staff.

4. Please minimize your outdoor activities and do not leave Nanjing unless necessary if you are not in the closed and controlled management areas and take necessary self-protection and self-health monitoring.

5. If you have symptoms such as fever, cough, fatigue, and/or anything suspicious, please seek medical treatment at a nearby fever clinic as soon as possible (click http://wjw.nanjing.gov.cn/njswshjhsywyh/202101/t20210111_2788505.html for the list of fever clinics in Nanjing). Report your travel and contact history proactively when seeing a doctor. If you have close contacts with confirmed or suspected case(s) in 14 days, please accept centralized quarantine in designated place for medical observation subject to instructions of the prevention and control authorities.
