There is no explicit requirement that new crown patients are not allowed to have cell phones, and in the case of critically infected patients in the ICU they may not be able to use them.
According to the current relevant policies and treatment measures, there is no explicit requirement on whether or not to carry cell phones. In particular, most of the new crown pneumonia infected patients infected by Omicron are asymptomatic and mildly ill, and they can use cell phones normally, whether in hotels or centralized isolation points such as square cabins.
However, in the case of infected patients who have been admitted to ICUs for centralized isolation treatment, due to their own serious conditions and even the need for therapeutic measures such as ventilators and extracorporeal membrane lungs, they are unable to carry out normal activities at this time, and thus are unable to use their cell phones in a normal manner, but carrying cell phones is generally able to be permitted.
