You probably won't even know you passed through it. I believe it is the person who stands there before you enter the passport check with a remote thermometer checking everyone's temperature remotely.

The quarantine health station is just a counter located to the right side of the immigration booths, if you are sick or are suffering from a communicable disease, you are supposed to check in there. The only time the quarantine health station is used is when there are flights arriving from places which have had outbreaks of dangerous diseases.
