A coronavirus was found in 61 passengers from South Africa at Amsterdam airport

 61 people who arrived in the Netherlands on flights from South Africa on Friday tested positive for coronavirus. The updated information was presented on Saturday by the Health Service of the Municipality of Kenemerland, which includes the city of Schiphol, where the airport is located, reports TACC.                                                                                      "The results are known," authorities said. "According to the information we have, there are 61 positive and 539 negative results." "Passengers with negative tests had the opportunity to leave the airport or continue their journey," the municipal health service said. Mandatory quarantine is provided for at least seven days in the presence of symptoms and at least five days in their absence. People were also given the opportunity to isolate themselves at home if they lived alone and could go home without contact with others (for example, in a private car - TASS) "... What strain of coronavirus was found in travelers is not reported.             The decision to test passengers on two flights arriving from South Africa was taken by the Dutch authorities amid the spread of a new strain of coronavirus in the region, which could be more dangerous than previously known options. For the same reason, the Netherlands suspended flights with South African countries at noon on Friday. In addition, the countries of the region are included in the list of countries to which travel is associated with extremely high risk. This, among other things, provides for mandatory self-isolation after a visit to these countries.
