UK to introduce quarantine for international arrivals from June 8

MM News Staff by MM News Staff
May 23, 2020
LONDON: United Kingdom will introduce a COVID-19 quarantine for travellers arriving from abroad from June 8, interior minister Priti Patel said on Friday, to help slow the spread of coronavirus.
All international arrivals, including returning Britons, will have to self-isolate for 14 days and provide details of where they will be staying under the plans “Now we are past the peak of this virus, we must take steps to guard against imported cases triggering a resurgence of this deadly disease,” Patel said at a news conference.
Those who breach the quarantine in England could be fined 1,000 pounds and spot checks would be carried out by health and border officials.
The quarantine will not apply to those arriving from Ireland, or to freight drivers, medical professionals and seasonal agricultural workers. The measures will be reviewed every three weeks.
Transport minister Grant Shapps has suggested the government would seek to negotiate ‘air bridges’ for travellers coming from countries with low virus infection rates. France said it regretted Britain’s decision and is ready to impose reciprocal measures.
Britain has carried out few tests and checks on visitors unlike many other countries with quarantine limited only to arrivals from China at the start of the outbreak.
Spain and Italy have introduced rules that mean international arrivals must self-isolate for two weeks, while Ireland gave further details for its own quarantine proposals.
The plans have criticised by airlines, business groups and politicians alike. The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) said the blanket quarantine was deeply concerning and could be avoided with strong safety measures.
The opposition Labour Party supported the measures but said the government’s handling of UK arrivals had “lacked urgency, coherence and clarity from the outset”. Some members of Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative party have also criticised the plan.
Chief among industry critics are airline bosses, who have said the measures would have severe repercussions. Michael O’Leary, Ryanair’s chief executive, said they would be “unenforceable and unpoliceable.”
Ryanair and EasyJet have outlined plans to restart some flights in coming months, but Virgin Atlantic will not restart until August at the earliest under the quarantine plan,
