Beijing has put in place quarantine measures for its military personnel, in a sign that the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak may be growing more severe in China.
On Feb. 18, China’s military, the People’s Liberation Army, reported on its official online video platform that 12 military officers, including a quartermaster named Li Yalei, have been placed under “isolation management.” They are responsible for providing safe food supplies and safe meals amid the outbreak for an air force unit stationed at China’s Central Theater Command.
