Yesterday, the Government of Canada issued an advisory against non-essential travel to Mainland China. As a result, 成人VR视频 academic staff members are strongly advised to avoid travelling to China and, if already there, to leave the country as soon as possible.
If you are in China presently:
As the situation is constantly changing, please consult the Government of Canada鈥檚 and for the most up-to-date information Should you choose to remain in China, you will incur what the Government of Canada to be an 鈥渋ncreased risk鈥� of becoming ill, and of 鈥渟preading disease to other groups including the Canadian public.鈥� For your own safety and that of others, I strongly urge you to leave the country as soon as possible. Several countries have reported plans to help their citizens leave China; please contact your local consular authorities if you need help with travel arrangements.
