Foreign media: China has strengthened epidemic prevention and control at border ports

As part of its strategy to control the COVID-19 pandemic, China is tightening border controls at ports, Latin America reported in Beijing on November 4. The rebound of the epidemic has led to a surge in local cases, and experts believe that the epidemic situation is very complicated.

China's National Immigration Administration said it will continue to guide citizens not to leave the country unless urgently or unnecessarily, and will continue to strictly and strictly implement the entry policy for foreigners. Personnel involved in the Winter Olympics will be strictly restricted to the "epidemic prevention bubble", and inbound flights and charter flights will also be strictly protected.

Unless there is a valid reason, China prohibits foreign vessels from docking and entering ports, requiring cargo trucks to pass through designated routes in border areas and non-contacting when goods are handed over.

In addition to the above measures, the Chinese government has stepped up patrols of the land border and increased border guard personnel in areas prone to illegal border crossings.

According to the report, China is under the pressure of the epidemic, and many provinces are strengthening the prevention and control of the epidemic, adopting strict control measures and conducting large-scale nucleic acid testing.

Experts agree that the situation has become more complex because of the availability of multiple sources, the number of people affected has skyrocketed in a matter of weeks, and as temperatures are gradually falling, both COVID-19 and influenza cases are likely to increase at the same time.
