They will be declared high-risk regions, and as of Saturday, 8 August, all arrivals from these regions will be subject to mandatory testing. Until the test result is ready they will be subject to mandatory 14-day quarantine. If the test returns positive, the quarantine will be lifted, the ministry of foreign affairs announces, as quoted by BNR’s Horizont channel.
