M. Draghi: Five-day quarantine for the vaccinated who arrive by air – Mandatory test

Speaking in the Italian parliament, Prime Minister Mario Draghi confirmed that from tomorrow a five-day quarantine will be imposed on those citizens who have not been vaccinated and arrive in the country by air from other EU member states.

Unvaccinated citizens as well as vaccinated people should bring with them a rapid coronavirus test (which must have been done up to 24 hours before their arrival) or a molecular test (with a margin of 48 hours).

“In our country, the Omicron variant infections are less than 0.2% of all cases. In other countries this variant is very common and for this reason, we thought of applying the same practice that applies to anyone who arrives in the country.” “We from the United Kingdom: the test. I do not think the issue needs too much thought,” said the Italian technocratic prime minister.

However, according to the Brussels-based newspaper La Repubblica from Brussels, European Commission officials commented that “member states should inform the Commission of any restrictive measures taken.

According to the same newspaper, “it became known from the EU headquarters that the specific decision of the government of Rome will be a topic of discussion at tomorrow’s summit”.
