Specifically, the examination sites are required to urgently clean the environment of each examination site and examination room. Arrange enough fans, lighting, hand sanitizer in each examination room and provide enough masks for candidates and examination staff.

During the 3 days of the High School Graduation Exam (from August 8 to 10), at the testing sites, it is necessary to come up with a plan to measure the body temperature of all candidates before each exam. Each testing site needs to assign a doctor and medical staff to check the health of the candidates.
