Abstract

Since the outbreak of the pandemic, the normalization of nucleic acid testing (NAT) has become a social phenomenon in China. According to the statement of the State Council of China in June 2022, the normalization of NAT will “help to identify potential risks earlier and implement prevention and control measures faster”. In this case, the setting of COVID-19 test station has become one of the most critical stages. This paper will use linear planning and secondary planning, based on the current problems, Simulate the real distribution of population density in China's major cities (Shanghai) and reallocate test stations. The final data shows that the government can properly adjust the resource allocation and the density of test stations in various districts of Shanghai. This study can help us allocate resources more reasonably and make the society operate more efficiently.
