Does anyone know the procedures of what would happen if I tested positive on arrival?
What type of permission will you be arriving with ?Do you have residence status ? If not I would hope that quarantine officials would do one of 2 things : 1. Quarantine you at a hospital (expenses covered by you), 2. Put back on the next flight back to your origin.
