Cabinet slated to decide on future of quarantine hotels for arrivals from abroad
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe cabinet is slated to meet later today and decide on the future of the state-run quarantine hotels where all arrivals from abroad are required to stay for 14 days.
Ministers will weigh shuttering the hotels amid concern over the high costs required to maintain them and reports of several attempted suicides among lodgers due to the difficult conditions.
Army Radio reports that a draft of the decision slated to be passed would allow arrivals to return home, where law enforcement will be charged with monitoring them and ensuring that they don’t leave their houses. One of the options proposed is to have all arrivals download an app on their phones that would monitor their movements.
