What does nucleic acid testing mean when all tests are required?

Extensive testing means that nucleic acid testing should be carried out based on the risk of epidemic transmission, and it is necessary to ensure that testing is necessary. In our country, for nucleic acid testing, key groups "should be tested for all possible tests" and other groups "are willing to be tested for all possible tests".

Objects of "all inspections required" include: close contacts, overseas arrivals, fever outpatients, newly hospitalized patients and their accompanying persons, staff of medical institutions, port quarantine and border inspection personnel, and prison staff personnel, staff of social welfare and elderly care institutions.

"Testing if you wish" means that other citizens who want to be tested can take the initiative to make an appointment.

Extended information

The "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Promotion of Nucleic Acid Testing for New Coronavirus" points out that the costs for "all necessary tests" shall be borne by local governments and "willing to test all possible tests" The required expenses shall be borne by enterprises, institutions or individuals. Finally, it should be pointed out that the specific costs may vary from place to place.

Government departments should take the initiative to test these groups and strictly implement all epidemic prevention measures to prevent the epidemic from rebounding. In addition, relevant departments must also use the Internet and other channels to disseminate epidemic prevention knowledge to the people and improve their awareness of actively participating in epidemic prevention. Only with the active cooperation of the people can the national epidemic prevention be better.
