Corona outbreak is increasing in China. It is believed that by the end of January, the peak of corona will come in China, that is, at that time the cases of corona will be at their peak. Meanwhile, India, Australia, and Canada have also imposed Corona rules on passengers coming from China. Now passengers traveling from China to these countries will need a COVID-19 test. China suddenly ended the zero covid policy. After this, the coronavirus started spreading rapidly across the country and now the whole country is struggling with its outbreak.
It will be mandatory to show the test report from January 5
Australian health officials said on Sunday that from January 5, all air travelers arriving from China, Hong Kong, or Macao would need to show a negative COVID-19 test report within two days of departure. Canadian authorities have announced similar measures, which will go into effect on January 5.
In the opinion of experts, it will not be of any use.
Experts say that this step is not very effective. Kerry Bowman, assistant professor at the University of Toronto's Tertiary Faculty of Medicine, said the need for test reports "isn't based on science this time." It's not the early days of the pandemic, she added. Screening is not very effective. Often people can test positive several days and weeks later."
Dr. Isaac Bogoch, associate professor at the same university, said, “It is not entirely clear what the goals of this policy are. However, such measures have not helped. We know from the past that very focused and targeted travel measures like this don't do much to stop the spread of COVID.
Till now these countries have implemented this rule
Before Australia and Canada, America, Britain, India, Japan, and many European countries made it mandatory for passengers coming from China to present the corona testing report. China has imposed strict COVID-19 measures on Chinese travelers amid a lack of data on infections and fears of a new variant spreading.
The virus can also come from other routes
Bowman said, “Research has shown how the virus spreads through the movement of humans. This means that the next variant of the virus may emerge not only from China but also from elsewhere. If it does, it could reach Canada through other indirect routes. Another effective measure is to test the wastewater from airplanes and airports to check for viral load and mutations."
