returning travellers from countries with a required PCR test and who do
not present such a test should quarantine for 14 days
Close contact should quarantine
Quarantine possibly reducing, under discussion. We could increase
compliance by shortening it. We have difficult situation now – people
resisting and not understanding purpose of quarantine.

, we see that people don’t
comply with 14 days. Balanced decision – do we loose everybody?
People cannot stay home, especially if they are not sick. Or we reduce
