I think the charge for nucleic acid is reasonable, but it is still reasonable from the point of view of charge. I think the country should treat it differently, so as not to cut across the board, so as not to hurt the enthusiasm of the broad masses to actively support and cooperate with epidemic prevention. It is more appropriate to collect the cost of pure nucleic acid materials symbolically. To be objective, it is still affordable for citizens who earn thousands of dollars a month in most cities to pay tens of dollars a month for testing.

However, for many elderly people left behind in the vast rural areas of China, whose monthly pension income is only over 1,111 yuan, it is really a big burden for this group to pay such a sum of money every month.

As anyone who has had experience in the countryside knows, many old peasants have always been very frugal and careful. Even if it's not a penny, it should be said that they are still careful whether they are rich or poor.

Therefore, the charge for nucleic acid testing can be tried first in cities, and forget it in rural areas, especially in villages and towns with low income.

Besides, COVID-19 has long been defined as a public health event. Besides personal safety and health, nucleic acid testing is largely for others, mass groups and the whole society. Therefore, fees can be charged for the testing required by skilled individuals, as well as for the unified normalization testing, unless the local finance is extremely difficult.

Because testing one item is not entirely for personal needs, it is more for the safety of the whole city; Second, the normalization test is too frequent. In many places, it is now tested twice a week, 8~9 times a month, and even if it is mixed, it will cost tens of yuan a month.

For those special people, such as those engaged in catering express delivery, four tests are conducted every week, and if they all pay for it at their own expense, it will be a big expense in one year. Therefore, I think we should make a comprehensive evaluation and be careful whether the practice of charging for nucleic acid testing is pushed forward!
