Avoid travelling abroad, suggests Supreme Committee

Muscat: The Supreme Committee has urged citizens and residents to avoid travelling abroad in the coming days unless there is an extreme necessity.

This suggestion came after the Supreme Committee, tasked with tackling developments resulting from coronavirus, presided over the meeting today.

In a bid to protect all members of the society against the new Covid-19 variant, the Committee has taken the following decisions:  

1. Obtaining a PCR test, compulsory, before coming to the Sultanate from all countries of the world without exception.

2. Imposing quarantine again for those arriving on short visits to the Sultanate for less than seven days.
