新冠病毒感染正式实施“乙类乙管”
搭乘飞机、高铁和地铁
还需要佩戴口罩吗？
As China's COVID-19 prevention has achieved a stable transition after downgrading management of the virus to a Class B infection, discussions have arisen whether it is still necessary to wear masks on public transport.
交通部门表示：
建议乘客佩戴口罩，保护重点人群，但不做强制要求
Despite no compulsory requirement, experts still suggest passengers keep their masks on subway, trains and planes for the sake of public health, especially for vulnerable groups.
有乘客在社交平台分享，在地铁车厢内未佩戴口罩的照片。上周三，广州地铁回应：目前，在乘客进站前会提醒佩戴口罩，但不做强制要求。地铁是人流密集场所，为保障乘客健康出行，建议乘客尽量佩戴口罩。
"Passengers will be recommended to wear masks when entering crowded subway stations for the sake of their health, but this is not a compulsory requirement," Guangzhou Metro said on last Wednesday evening after netizens posted photos of people not wearing masks on the subway across social media platforms.
广州白云机场
Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport
广州白云机场客服人员介绍，建议旅客要佩戴口罩，现场工作人员看到没有佩戴口罩的旅客也会作进一步提醒。
Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport issued a similar response on whether passengers should wear masks at the airport.
中国南方航空公司则表示，此前接到相关通知，乘坐国际航班旅客需要佩戴口罩，乘坐国内航班则没有明确要求，以现场情况为主，建议旅客随身准备一个口罩。
Southern Airlines said passengers on the international flights need to wear masks while there is no clear requirement for those onboard domestic flights, suggesting that it was a good idea to keep one within reach.
广铁集团
China Railway Guangzhou Group
广铁集团工作人员表示，目前没有接收到“不强制戴口罩”的通知，按照防疫要求，市民出行乘坐高铁时仍需佩戴口罩。
China Railway Guangzhou Group said they haven't received a notice about removing masks on passengers traveling on China's high speed rail network.
专家表示，鉴于目前的新冠肺炎疫情，佩戴口罩可成为非强制性措施，但戴口罩仍是切断病毒传播途径的最有效方法。当前流感、诺如病毒等传染病仍在流行，在人流密集场所，如果佩戴了符合规定的口罩，应该能很好地避免呼吸道感染。
Experts said wearing masks could become a non-compulsory measure given the current COVID-19 situation, but it was still an effective way to block infectious diseases and thus remained necessary given the current elevated risk of catching influenza and norovirus infection.
