On quarantine, UK minister says we need to protect the nation's health

Mon, 01st Jun 2020 08:40

LONDON, June 1 (Reuters) - British Business Secretary Alok
Sharma said on Monday that the quarantine for international
travellers that has so angered some airlines was important to
take care of the health of the country.

"We have to make sure that we are taking care of the health
of the nation," Sharma said when asked by Sky why the airline
industry was being destroyed by the quarantine.

"There is going to be a three-week rolling review of the
quarantine measures," Sharma said. He did not directly answer
when asked if he would be happy if the quarantine, due to begin
on June 8, was scrapped.
