7. Price gouging forbidden

The State Administration for Market Regulation has intensified its supervision over price gouging of epidemic prevention supplies and essential goods for people's livelihood like vegetables.

Actions have been taken in combating the wild animal trade and cracking down on the sale of counterfeit or substandard goods, especially fake facial masks and protective clothing.

8. Psychological support stressed

To address anxiety and mental health concerns triggered by the novel coronavirus outbreak, the National Health Commission has issued a guideline requiring provincial-level regions to integrate psychological support resources and standardize such public services on Feb 2.

The guideline proposes a four-tier system based on the risk of developing mental issues, with patients confirmed of contracting the virus, front-line medical workers and disease prevention and management staff placed on the highest level.
