Close contacts of COVID-19 cases can undergo home quarantine if their living conditions meet quarantine requirements or opt to go to a quarantine facility for five days, Shanghai authorities announced on Wednesday as part of its latest adjusted COVID-19 prevention and control measures.
To those currently under centralised quarantine with eligible living condition, they can be transferred back to home to finish isolation.
