As the number of corona19 confirmed in Korea continues to increase, Singapore’s Ministry of Health announced that it will be quarantined at designated facilities for 14 days for those who have visited Korea for the past 14 days.

The measure will take effect from 11:59 pm on the 26th local time, the Ministry of Health said.

From the 2nd of last month, immigrants arriving in Singapore from Korea have been able to quarantine for 2 weeks at a residence other than a designated facility.

This measure also applies to those returning to Singapore among those subject to the expedited passage procedure that Korea and Singapore have been implementing for essential personnel such as businessmen and public officials since September.

In the midst of this, New York City, USA, mandated self-isolation for all international passengers arriving at New York City airports.

All international passengers arriving at New York City airports must provide an address and contact information.

You will then receive a registered mail order from the New York City Department of Health to your home or hotel.

Especially for visitors from the UK, where the mutant virus is outbreak, officers from the sheriff’s office visit hotels or homes to see if they are following quarantine orders.

New York City said that if a breach of the quarantine order is caught, a fine of 1,000 dollars a day or 1.11 million won in our money will be imposed.
