Furthermore, main cities in Zhejiang province, including Wenzhou and Hangzhou, have imposed restrictions on land transport and the movement of residents, which indicated that community transmission might have occurred. Considering close social and commercial exchanges between Taiwan and the province, CECC decided to list Zhejiang province as Level 2 Area starting from February 5. Travelers with a history of travel to Zhejiang province are required to be under home quarantine after entering Taiwan.
