The cost of isolation for fourteen days can be borne by the people's government. It is an important preventive measure to adopt centralized isolation observation in epidemic prevention and control, especially at the time when the epidemic situation in foreign countries is developing seriously. It is more important to isolate the imported cases. Most of the centralized isolation observation points are set in hotels near the station airport, which will generate certain expenses for the isolation of people in epidemic areas, such as accommodation and meals. During the period of isolation, the people's government that implements isolation measures shall provide living security for the isolated personnel. Local people's governments at all levels shall guarantee the funds for the prevention and control of infectious diseases in urban communities and rural grassroots.
Legal basis: Article 12 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases. All units and individuals within the territory of People's Republic of China (PRC) must accept the investigation, inspection, sample collection and isolation treatment of infectious diseases by disease prevention and control institutions and medical institutions, and provide relevant information truthfully. Disease prevention and control institutions and medical institutions shall not disclose relevant information and materials involving personal privacy. Where the administrative department of health and other relevant departments, disease prevention and control institutions and medical institutions illegally implement administrative management or prevention and control measures and infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of units and individuals, the relevant units and individuals may apply for administrative reconsideration or bring a lawsuit according to law.
