10,000 Britons who have entered Switzerland since December 14 must be quarantined. The Federal Council decided on Monday. If you wanted to fly from London to the mountains, you were unlucky: all flights were canceled. The federal government wants to limit the spread of the crown mutation as much as possible.
The quarantine regulation also applies to Swiss citizens who have traveled to Switzerland from the UK. Well-known names are also affected: Federal Councilor Guy Parmelin is currently home alone, as confirmed by his communications chief, Urd Wiedmer.
Post-Brexit agreement signed
The Economy Minister was in London from 13 to 14 December to sign an agreement on mobility of service providers with British Trade Minister Elizabeth Truss. With this, Switzerland prepares for the post-Brexit period. Parmelin even reported on the signing of the contract on his Twitter account.
Not only is Parmelin himself affected by the quarantine, but the entire five-person delegation, including Wiedmer.
Until December 24
He says: “We always kept all safe distances and, with a few exceptions, we used a mask when eating or during negotiation. Therefore, I do not assume that no one has been infected. But the rules apply to everyone, and that’s correct. “
Parmelin now has to live in a single room at her house in Bursins VD until Christmas Eve and eat there. You should only leave the room in rare cases and then wearing a mask. (sf)
