Overseas arrivals transiting through Shanghai to undergo quarantine

Passengers on international flights transiting through Shanghai to other Chinese destinations will be required to undergo a 14-day quarantine period to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the municipal government announced on Friday.

The measure, effective on the same day, does not apply to travelers to the provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui passing through Shanghai. Authorities in the three provinces will dispatch teams to Shanghai Pudong International Airport to directly transport travelers to their respective destinations instead.
