LONDON, June 12 (Reuters) - Britain's government have
brought in quarantine rules to protect public health, a
spokesman for Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Friday,
declining to comment on legal action brought by British Airways,
easyJet and Ryanair.
"I would emphasise that we've obviously brought these
quarantine rules into place to protect public health and ensure
we don't import the virus as cases in the community reduce," the
spokesman told reporters, adding that the government does not
comment on "ongoing legal matters".
