Starting at 6 pm on Saturday, the city launched week-long temporary control measures at indoor places for public gathering and entertainment. Large-scale meeting and offline training activities will be stopped temporarily as well.
Passengers need to show their health codes, travel records, body temperatures and present a negative nucleic acid test result from within the preceding 48 hours before they can go through boarding procedures and depart from the island starting Sunday.
