Coronavirus: Why isn't the UK testing travellers on arrival?
Nose or throat swab tests are available that can detect if someone is currently infected with coronavirus.They are safe and accurate, but can sometimes give a false negative result.
Dr Joshua Moon from the University of Sussex Business School said:"This is concerning as a negative test result may give people a false sense of security." If every traveller returning from high-infection countries properly adheres to the fortnight of quarantine - by staying at home and not going to the shops or having visitors - then the risk of spreading coronavirus is extremely low.It comes down to balancing risks and understanding what is feasible.
