When carrying out home isolation, it is recommended to report to the local health department or epidemic prevention personnel in a timely manner, especially those from places with high incidence of infectious diseases, or those who have contact with people from places with high incidence of infectious diseases, so as to avoid being investigated for criminal responsibility in case of accidents. If the person who meets the conditions for home isolation refuses to do so and causes serious consequences, he or she will be convicted and punished for the crime of endangering public security by dangerous means in accordance with the relevant laws of China. Abide by regulations, report actively, and rely on everyone to prevent and control the epidemic.
