Is it legal not to enter the community during the epidemic?

Legal analysis: Whether it is legal to refuse to enter the community during the epidemic period depends on the situation. At this stage, there are no relevant laws and regulations to support property companies, neighborhood committees and village committees to upgrade prevention and control measures without authorization and deprive all personnel of their basic rights. Under the specific epidemic situation, in order to protect people's property safety, all localities have issued corresponding policies to prevent the spread of the epidemic, which we should respect and actively cooperate with, but not across the board.

Legal basis: Article 42 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases. When infectious diseases break out and are prevalent, the local people's governments at or above the county level shall immediately organize forces to carry out prevention and control according to the prevention and control plan and cut off the transmission route of infectious diseases. When necessary, the following emergency measures can be taken and reported to the people's government at the next higher level for announcement: (1) restricting or stopping fairs, theatrical performances or other crowd gathering activities; (2) suspension of work, business or classes; (three) closed or sealed public drinking water sources, food and related items contaminated by infectious disease pathogens; (4) controlling or culling wild animals, domestic animals and poultry infected with the epidemic; (five) closed places that may cause the spread of infectious diseases. When the people's government at a higher level receives the report of the people's government at a lower level on taking the emergency measures listed in the preceding paragraph, it shall make a decision immediately. The lifting of emergency measures shall be decided and announced by the original decision-making organ.
