As China encourages people to return to work despite the coronavirus outbreak, it has begun a bold mass experiment in using data to regulate citizens’ lives — by requiring them to use software on their smartphones that dictates whether they should be quarantined or allowed into subways, malls and other public spaces.
Tianjin will introduce the Alipay Health Code — a project by the local government with the help of Ant Financial, a sister company of the e-commerce giant Alibaba.

Citizens need to sign up through Alipay or APP, and are assigned a color code — green, yellow or red — that indicates their health status.
"Green Code"can access to all districts, enterprises, airports (including terminal halls), stations (including trains, long-distance passenger waiting rooms), farmers markets, large supermarkets, shopping malls, door shops, schools, banks Places with large nature and likely to gather, as well as public transportation such as subways, buses, long-distance buses, taxis, and Internet taxis, can travel and resume work when the body temperature is normal;
"Orange Code" means people need to implement home medical observation and consciously accept community management;
"Red Code"means people are strictly controlled by relevant agencies and communities.
"Red Code" and "Orange Code" personnel will be converted to "Green Code" after meeting the conditions for epidemic prevention and control.
