In view of this, it was decided to restrict the arrival of flights from that region to try to minimize the entry of more variants of the virus into Jamaica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>See also:

headache.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the new limitations, in addition to the flight ban, foreigners who have traveled to the United Kingdom, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Colombia, Argentina and Paraguay during the last 14 days will not be allowed to enter the Caribbean country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Holness also pointed out that Jamaicans coming from any of these countries, who will be allowed to enter through another territory as a stopover, will be examined and forced to quarantine for a minimum of 48 hours until they obtain the results of the tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If these nationals test negative, they will be allowed to remain in their residences to complete a 14-day quarantine period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the event of a positive test result, they will have to remain in isolation at a location approved by the Jamaican Ministry of Health and Welfare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid
