If you recently have travelled to Hubei, please stay at home for medical observation for 14 days, pay close attention to your physical conditions, and take your temperature twice per day. If possible, stay alone in a well-ventilated room and reduce close contact with your family members. Wear a mask correctly and clean and disinfect your hands often. Avoid sharing any items that may cause an indirect contact infection to anyone else living in the same place. Tableware must be washed and disinfected before use. Chlorine-containing or peracetic acid disinfectants can be used for room disinfection. If symptoms such as fever, cough, pharyngalgia, chest distress, dyspnea, feebleness and diarrhea have occurred, stop home quarantine and seek treatment immediately at one of the designated hospitals while wearing a mask.
