Zhang Zhoubin, deputy director of Guangzhou CDC introduced the regulation. Per Zhang, people including foreigners and Chinese who have been in a risky situation of infection shall be released after the quarantine is over given theyve received two negative test results and have never been exposed to the high-risk places.
Most of the expats who received a quarantine have been living and working in Guangzhou for a quite long time, they are residents in town. Measures towards them are completely consistent with that to Chinese that were in similar situation. Additionally, for those who are hospitalized, we provided services of diagnosis, treatment and discharge strictly in accordance with the Prevention and Control Plan promulgated by the State." Zhang said.
