Can I travel to the north during the COVID-19 epidemic?

Winter is here, and many places have received their first snowfall. I believe many friends from the south must want to go north to see the snow. However, the epidemic has broken out again recently. It is recommended that everyone should try as little as possible. When you go out, don't put any more burden on the country, and don't let the angels in white test nucleic acid all night long in the cold wind. After all, this winter is really too cold.

I hope everyone will strengthen epidemic prevention while keeping out the cold. Be sure to wear a mask and protect yourself when going out, and disinfect and wash your hands when you go home, because everyone you come into contact with may increase your health. There is a risk of the yard turning yellow or red. Don’t let the ginkgo leaves in autumn and maple leaves in winter take the blame at that time. Next, let me introduce to you some relevant laws on epidemic prevention!

1. He concealed his travel history in high-risk areas and was suspected of obstructing the prevention and control of infectious diseases. Two days ago, a man in Sichuan concealed his travel history in a high-risk area for the epidemic within 14 days and failed to report it to the community immediately. There was a serious risk of spreading the new coronavirus disease. His behavior violated Article 330 of the Criminal Law. According to the provisions of the article, he is suspected of obstructing the prevention and control of infectious diseases and has been investigated by the Jinniu Public Security Bureau of the Chengdu Municipal Public Security Bureau in accordance with the law.

The first case is the crime of obstructing the prevention and control of infectious diseases by the defendant Zhong Moumou (male). Because he deliberately concealed his activity trajectory and contact history, 4 of his close contacts were diagnosed with the infection and 106 people were infected. He was placed in medical isolation and on November 6, the defendant Zhong Moumou was sentenced to one year in prison for the crime of obstructing the prevention and control of infectious diseases.

2. False reporting of travel history in high-risk areas for the epidemic, suspected of fabricating facts to disrupt public order. Some time ago, Fang Fang, a man from Chongqing, Shuyang County, Suqian City, Jiangsu Province, was feeling unwell recently. In order to achieve the purpose of free examination, he deliberately called the police saying that he had recently returned to Shu from a high-risk area in Yangzhou, hoping to receive free medical treatment. Fang's behavior was suspected of fabricating facts to disrupt public order, and Shuyang police imposed administrative detention on him for 10 days.

Finally, I would like to remind everyone that at this critical moment of epidemic prevention, I hope you will not cause chaos to the country. Complying with epidemic prevention and control regulations is an important measure to block the spread of the new coronavirus, and it is also the obligation of the general public. Anyone who refuses to implement the prevention and control measures proposed by people's governments at or above the county level and disease control and prevention institutions in accordance with the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Law, causing the spread of infectious diseases or posing a serious risk of spread, and suspected of illegal crimes will be held legally responsible!
