One instance of mandatory quarantine is the widespread use of community entry surveillance tools such as temperature monitoring and health registration forms to identify floating people returning from severely SARS affected regions such as Guangdong or Beijing. As a sharp contrast to Asian American and Asian Canadian's use of coerced quarantines as responses to racial targeting in SARS, overseas Chinese from H1N1 epicenters implemented voluntary quarantines when travelling back to China to reduce potential health risks they might have posed to local communities and the nation. ./cache/cord-346263-8znpqcth.txt ./txt/cord-346263-8znpqcth.txt
