Chinese Woman Gets Into France By Cheating Coronavirus Check Tracked By Authorities
WOMAN CHEATING CORONAVIRUS CHECK – Due to the outbreak of a new strain of Coronavirus from Wuhan, China, airports have tightened their security screenings for the Wuhan Coronavirus.
In France, there were three reported cases of the Virus. However, the French Health Minister Agnes Buzyn stated that temperature screenings would serve no purpose as the virus can emerge later.
She added that the symptoms could merely be lowered down by aspirin. This was exactly what one woman from China did to get past airport screenings.
According to a report from the Telegraph, the woman bragged on social media about how she cheated airport screenings for the virus by taking tablets. She said she was suffering from fever but managed to reduce her symptoms.
Finally, I can have a good meal, it feels like I have been starving for two days. In a city of global delicacies, of course we have to eat food with Michelin Stars. This was also more successful, with no bugs. Just before I left, I has a low fever and was coughing quite heavily, I ate lots of medicine, which lowered my fever. finally, my fever went down, and I was able to exit.
As per the report, the medicine was likely to be an antipyretic which lowers body temperatures when fevers hit.
Her post quickly went viral and was extremely criticized for being reckless and irresponsible. This led the Chinese embassy in France to respond with a notice urging all citizens to comply with border checks.
Our embassy has received multiple phone calls and emails from Chinese nationals regarding a woman from Wuhan who posted on social media about deliberately taking fever medication in order to evade the airport temperature checks
We attach high importance to this incident and were able to contact Ms Yan, who is involved in this incident. We have requested that she call the French emergency hotline to be handled by the relevant departments.
Following this, the embassy stated that she had come in contact with the woman and said that her temperature was under control and had no more fever or cough.
It added that the woman didn’t require further explanation. However, this still raised concerns as the virus could still be contagious during the incubation period between 1 and 14 days.
This meant that people could spread the virus even though there were no symptoms showing or present. Because of this, the virus would be harder to contain.
