On Sunday, the headquarters said that because the virus began to circulate within the country and isolated cases were detected among visitors, health workers will not make PCR analyses and put passengers under observation.

“The passengers will fill out a questionnaire and install a mobile application before they can go home.

“In case they show signs of COVID-19, they are recommended to consult a doctor at their place of residence,’’ the headquarters said. (Xinhua/NAN)
