Beijing: People intentionally spreading Covid-19 (novel coronavirus) or harming medical workers during the epidemic will be held criminally liable and severely punished in line with a new judicial guideline.
The guideline stipulates that people confirmed to be carrying the virus could be charged with endangering public security by dangerous methods if they refuse to be quarantined or leave before their quarantine time is up and enter public places or take public transport.
