JAKARTA - The Shenyang City Authority in northern China requires travelers from abroad to undergo a 56-day quarantine.

Launching Antara, Sunday, those who just arrived in Shenyang must be quarantined for 28 days at the hotel and 28 days at home.

While at the hotel, the visitors are not allowed to open the door to anyone except the food delivery man.

Similarly, during quarantine at home, they are not allowed to go out.

The strict policy adopted by the authorities of Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning Province, is part of its "zero COVID-19" strategy.

Shenyang last found a positive case of COVID-19 in July.

Several Chinese cities had their last cases last October with an increase of more than 70 percent, according to The Waijiao report.

Although the daily addition of COVID-19 cases is relatively small compared to other countries, China has not been free from this infectious and deadly disease.

"Despite the wide range of vaccinations, strict COVID-19 prevention and control policies are still needed," said Zhang Wenhong, director of the Huashan Hospital Infectious Diseases Department.
