In the face of the complicated developments of the epidemic, effective control at border gates and border areas is one of the important measures in epidemic prevention and control. Therefore, it is necessary to deploy support equipment for the forces on duty at the front line to ensure safety for immigration inspection and control activities at border gates, prevent illegal entry and exit on trails and openings, and prevent the epidemic from spreading across the border./.
