Before going to the hotel, Ms. Samantha was sent to a hospital, and she stayed there for four days, where she had two COVID tests and one CT scan.
She said that the hospital’ s food was under a low condition, however, the food in the quarantined hotel was nice.
After the four days, an ambulance took Ms. Samantha to the quarantine hotel, which cost 350 RMB per night and did not allow food delivery orders.“ Comparing to others that I have seen, mine was very big and spacious,” she said.
The only difficulty that Mr. McBroom faced was clothes washing since there was no place to dry the clothes.
Overall, the teachers, who were forced to isolate for 14 days, are glad the quarantine ended. Now that the teachers are back on campus, they are thrilled that they no longer need to face the same difficulties again.
The 14-Day Quarantine During the 14 days, Ms. Samantha and Mr. McBroom spent their time either Netflix or teaching.
Both of them said that the nucleic acid test was harder to handle in China than the test they had in their home country.
During their quarantine, they had experienced their own difficulties. Ms. Samantha said,“ The biggest challenge was trying to quarantine at my apartment for seven days since it was empty and being paid for the last eight months … I was not allowed to go to my house because my quarantine started in a different district.”
