It is not easy for the elevators to be dedicated 24/7. The team is required to submit a daily schedule of elevator usage to the hotel and use the elevator at specific times. Each time the elevator is used, it is operated by a hotel employee (who has tested negative for the antigen) in full protective gear to ensure that team members do not touch the elevator buttons directly.
Reporters subconsciously reach out to press the elevator button, always be prompted by the staff to remind.
Protective measures are not only for people, but also for things. Reporters in Japan will be the counterparts of the phone card to the front desk, this small card also has to go through several rounds of sterilization before entering the "bubble" space.
Each member of the Chinese team is required to undergo a daily nucleic acid test and can only leave the room with a negative result. The nucleic acid testing process also follows the "zero-contact" principle, and the testing method is the same as that of Tokyo.

Under such strict epidemic prevention measures, it is difficult for hotel staff to become close contacts of the team, so naturally there is no need to worry too much. This reporter followed the team in the 12 tournament, similar situations are common, and each time can be properly dealt with.
For the entire Chinese team competing outside the country in the 12-team tournament, the risk of infection is like the sword of Damocles, always hanging over their heads. Once the team is stranded overseas due to the epidemic, the impact on the national soccer team will be incalculable.
However, no one can ensure absolute safety. 25,000 spectators are expected to attend the Japan match on the 27th. Not long ago, a Japanese fan was diagnosed after watching the Emperor's Cup soccer match in a feverish state, becoming a major source of virus transmission.
Being under the dangerous wall is a duty and a mission for all members of the Chinese team. But complying with the strict rules of epidemic prevention inevitably means dedication and sacrifice.
At this critical moment, more understanding leads to more solidarity. More unity is more hope.
