精准防控面临的问题来自于健康码的设计需要革新

问题：层层加“码”真的提高了防疫的标准了吗？最近苏州疫情严重。之前出入公司只检查苏康码是绿码就可以同行了。后来防疫标准提高了，要求同时还需要出示行程码不带星才可以进入。再后来为了限制外地人员，又搞出来了一个出入码。导致每次进一次园区都需要工卡、苏康码、行程码、出入证一堆证件。。。把一队汽车堵住了，而更让人疑惑就是：额外增加一个码，真的更加安全了吗？是否其中某些码的功能已经覆盖了呢？例如：行程码中带有上海，往往意味着比较危险。但是病毒并不是按行政区划传播的。上海也有安全的地方，苏州也有危险的地方。例如上海的滴水湖就几乎没有病例。假如我去一趟滴水湖导致行程码带了星就不能进入园区，似乎也不合理。额外增加一些码产生的问题相当的多：例如很多人有两部手机，或可以偷偷借来一部手机，来骗到绿码、通行证混进社区。这又不得不花费法律成本和道德来纠正这些问题。或许对于基层来说，为 …
