Chinanews.com, January 27th. The National Health and Medical Commission website issued on the 27th the "Notice on the orderly implementation of nucleic acid testing during the Spring Festival travel period" key questions to answer questions, pointing out that travelers who meet the prescribed travel conditions have valid new coronavirus nucleic acids After a negative test result arrives at the destination, there is no need to quarantine. After arriving at the destination, perform personal health monitoring to minimize gatherings and comply with local epidemic prevention and control policies.

  The full text of the question is as follows:

Why is it necessary to issue the "Notice on the Orderly Implementation of Nucleic Acid Testing for Mass Travel during the Spring Festival Transport Period" (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice")?

  At present, the global epidemic of new crown pneumonia is showing a high incidence, sporadic cases and clusters of epidemics in local areas in my country have increased significantly, and the epidemic prevention and control situation is severe and complex.

Especially during the Spring Festival, the increase in personnel flow and frequent gathering activities will increase the risk of the spread of the epidemic.

In order to implement the requirements of the Central Office and the State Council’s "Notice on Doing a Good Job in Guaranteeing the People's Local Chinese New Year Service", the State Council should issue the "Notice" to guide all localities in a targeted manner by issuing the "Notice" to the Comprehensive Prevention and Control Mechanism of the Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia Epidemic Nucleic acid testing for travelers during the Spring Festival.

When will the "Notice" be implemented?

  In order to do a good job in nucleic acid testing during the Spring Festival travel, the "Notice" will be implemented from the date of issuance.

Traveling with a negative certificate of the new coronavirus nucleic acid test will be implemented from January 28, 2021 after the Spring Festival travel season begins, and ends after the end of the Spring Festival travel season on March 8, 2021.

Do travelers need to be quarantined after arriving at their destination during the Spring Festival travel period?

  Travelers who meet the travel conditions specified in this document do not need to be quarantined after arriving at the destination with a negative result of a valid new coronavirus nucleic acid test. After arriving at the destination, perform personal health monitoring to minimize gatherings and comply with local epidemic prevention and control policies.

If symptoms such as fever, dry cough, sore throat, decreased sense of smell (taste), diarrhea, etc. occur, go to the hospital in time.

How to obtain a negative nucleic acid test certificate for travelers?

  Before departure, travelers can conduct tests at any local medical institution, disease control agency or third-party testing agency that is qualified for nucleic acid testing, and travel with a certificate of negative nucleic acid test or a health pass code "green code" that contains negative information on nucleic acid testing.

What is the difference between mixed sampling detection and single tube detection?

  Mixed sampling detection refers to mixing samples of multiple people (generally no more than 10 people) into the same detection tube to carry out detection, which improves detection efficiency and reduces detection costs, but it may take longer to wait for centralized sampling.

According to the principle of voluntariness, nucleic acid testing of travelers during the Spring Festival can adopt mixed sampling technology to carry out testing.

The laboratory testing time for mixed sampling and single-tube testing is the same and does not affect the time for issuance of the test report.

How to guarantee the needs of nucleic acid testing during the Spring Festival?

  In response to the increase in the demand for nucleic acid testing during the Spring Festival, guide all regions to improve nucleic acid testing capabilities, actively explore to reduce the cost of nucleic acid testing, improve the timeliness of nucleic acid testing, and increase the convenience of nucleic acid testing.

Up to now, the national new coronavirus nucleic acid testing capacity has exceeded 15 million copies per day. If mixed sample testing is carried out, the national total testing capacity can be further improved to ensure the nucleic acid testing needs during the Spring Festival.

Do people vaccinated with the new crown vaccine also need to follow the requirements for nucleic acid testing during the Spring Festival travel period?

  Considering the protective effect of the vaccine, the ability to prevent infection, and the ability to block the spread of the disease, people who have been vaccinated against the new crown still need to follow the requirements for nucleic acid testing during the Spring Festival travel period.
