一对一对标检查:三色分流
Customers Inspection: One-on-One Investigation, Stick Labels on Passports.
海关和边检部门一对一对标检查,向入境人员了解过往旅行史居住地等信息、检查入境申报表、填写其他表格,依据相关标准在入境人员护照上粘贴红、黄、绿三色标签。持有绿色标签,则由工作人员引导至放行通道,正常通行。持有红色或黄色标签的,机场工作人员会护送到上海16个行政区的驻点人员以及邻省驻点人员,再组织入境人员至集中隔离或居家隔离中转点。
The customs officials will conduct one-on-one investigation, check Exit/Entry Health Declaration Form, fill in various forms, stick labels on passports with red, yellow or green based on investigation. For those with green labels, the returnees can go home by themselves directly. If with red or yellow labels, the returnees will be escorted by airport staff to find their committees from the 16 districts of Shanghai.
Centralized Isolation or Home Isolation?
Returnees with yellow labels, and if they have fixed addresses in Shanghai, after confirming with the neighborhood committees and the landlords (if the returnees are tenants), a quarantine bus will take them to the compound gates. If they do not have fixed addresses, they will have to go for centralized isolation.
For those with red labels, they will go for centralized isolation with the quarantine bus.
From Airport to Isolation Point, Closed-loop Transportation
Pudong Airport has organized 40 buses, and 20 medium buses 24 hours standby every day to send returnees to the designated places for isolation. After each transfer, the bus will be treated disinfection to avoid cross infection.
Centralized Isolation
Designated quarantine hotels have been set up in 16 districts of Shanghai. The hotel has service staff, doctors and polices, providing services to the returnees 24 hours every day. The food, online shopping will be delivered to the returnees’ rooms. The doctor will take temperature of the returnees twice every day and keep records. The cost of the centralized isolation including meals and accommodation needs to be paid by the returnees themselves.
Home Quarantine
Returnees from key countries/areas will be sent to temporary observation sites in each district, they will then undergo nucleic acid tests for the coronavirus. Those with negative test results will be escorted to their residences or designated sites by district officials to undergo 14-day quarantine, while people testing positive will be transferred to designated medical treatment institutions.
Meanwhile, the neighborhood committee will check whether those returnees meet home quarantine conditions by visiting their living spaces while they wait for the nucleic acid test results, and they will be quarantined at designated spots if conditions don't allow home quarantine.
The neighborhood committee staff, community police and community doctors will be waiting for the returnees at the entrance of the community, there will be still some procedures: take the temperature, fill in the health registration form and sign on the quarantine promises.
During the period of home quarantine, the food and online-shopping will be delivered to the door by the community staff; the garbage should be put at the door at specific time so that the community will collect it each day. And the returnees should report their temperature twice each day.
Stricter home quarantine management will be imposed by police, health authorities and community officials to ensure that those quarantined for 14-day medical observation do not leave home. People breaking quarantine will be held responsible according to the law.
After the 14-day quarantine period expires, if the returnees are not found as affected, the district health service centers will issue a notification to release the quarantine.
