Two hundred British tourists fled the solitary confinement of hotels in Switzerland, where they were quarantined as a measure of the emergence of the new strain of coronavirus.
420 UK tourists were quarantined at the Swiss ski resort of Verbier and forced to stay in hotel rooms for 10 days.
According to the Swiss press, almost 200 of them escaped isolation. Her disappearance was discovered by hotel staff, according to Mediafax.
“They were quarantined for a day, then they escaped and were left in the dark,” said Sonnstags Zeitung, a spokesman for the Bagnes commune, which includes the ski resort.
Many of the tourists went to France, a country where, due to restrictions, British citizens cannot enter so easily. The emergence of the new strain of coronavirus in England has prompted European authorities to impose travel restrictions on Great Britain. France closed its border but ended the ban on Wednesday, giving people with a negative test the opportunity to travel.
