[Instant News/Comprehensive Report] The (novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19) epidemic continues to rage. In order to prevent imported cases from abroad, the Spanish Ministry of Health announced yesterday (12th) that starting from the 15th, all travelers entering Spain will be required to quarantine at home for 14 days.
According to foreign media reports, the Spanish Ministry of Health stated that all arrivals must undergo home quarantine at home or a designated residence, but they can go out when necessary to buy food, medicine, or seek medical treatment, and they must wear a mask when going out. Travelers must provide their complete accommodation location upon entry so that Spanish authorities can contact them during home quarantine.
