Mainland expands health code monitoring and deducts points for Hangzhou Yanbu

The health code was used in the Mainland in February. The initial role was to distinguish whether people had contracted new pneumonia and whether they were close contacts. But Hangzhou plans to start using it permanently in June to monitor the health of citizens at any time. Users must declare their name, gender, mobile phone, address, and payment records. The health code will be divided into different colors, and each color will be based on the personal medical records of the citizens and the results of the medical examination. Green is normal health, and purple or red indicates danger; if smoking, it will reduce the score by 3 points, and every 200 liters of drinking. Will drop 1.5 points and so on. But if there is a running to reach a certain goal, you can add 3 more points.

Hu Xijin shares privacy with worry

However, the measures have caused controversy in the Mainland, thinking that the health code will become a new monitoring tool. Hu Xijin, editor-in-chief of the Global Times, on the 25th of last month, entitled "Normalization of health codes does not mean expansion of functions", believes that health codes can control the epidemic, but personal health should not be scored to protect personal privacy. He criticized: "Whether a person has a bad heart, abnormal blood sugar, a high risk of cancer, or contracted a disease that is difficult to tell, and his personal whereabouts, he has the right to not be disclosed to the public."

High-risk workers are afraid of discrimination

In addition, the health code will be scored according to the contact history. Engaged in the breeding and slaughtering industry, virus research and even medical staff are also worried about whether they will be prevented by the community from returning home because of the low score in the future, or whether they cannot go to public places, etc. In disguise, they are discriminated against. Before the health codes are permanently implemented, there are already shopping malls, offices, etc. that prohibit people with non-green health codes from entering and leaving. The situation is worrying.
