No one gets to enter the country if they have been in any of a certain list of countries in the last 14 days. Including Italy etc. Turkey's current confirmed cases even with a huge border with Iran is still 0 You'll love their policy when they stop flights to the UK to stop us infecting them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can it be possible? #COVID2019 Maybe because every passenger going through Milan airport has been thermally screened since 6th Feb. You can't get into the departures lounge without being screened. Quote Airports perform thermal screening of passengers to spot fevers caused by infections such as CoV, swine flu, and influenza (such as H1N1). Thermal screening is performed using mass-screening systems that measure the skin temperature at high-speed using thermal imaging and temperature measurement equipment such as the FevIR Scan. Such quick mass-screening ensures to take security measures without causing delays and discomfort to passengers. https://www.airport-technology.com/features/coronavirus-measures-world-airports/ Heathrow's got the same system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe rather than let the Italians do the screening the UK should be doing their own on people coming in from high risk countries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My missis witnessed one youngish female grabbing a trolley and whipping the pile of remaining toilet rolls and kitchen towels into it and heading straight for the counter where an old women asked her if she didn't think she was being selfish. Did she give a f**k? Did she f**k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 The conflicting information regarding the Italian "lockdown" is quite confusing as both Ryanair & Easyjet are still selling their flights to Milan and Venice with no warnings or restrictions noted ??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
