Review of the Council of Ministers of 21 April

"No more traveler from abroad can enter Madagascar, Whatever the place of departure ”. This, To prevent others from varying coronavirus to arrive in Madagascar, including, The Indian variant which is wreaking havoc in India and which is classified by WHO in the category of "worrying variants", with a high "transmission rate" and a "rapid increase in prevalence".

Problematic

This virus is, Unfortunately, already present in around forty countries, as the France, The meeting, and even in Africa, According to the World Health Organization (WHO). Indian variant cases have been detected in South Africa, oh Kenya, to the Morocco.

The fact that these travelers are diplomats, Strategic industries experts, or state missionaries, does not destroy the risk of transport from another variant of the covid-19 virus to Madagascar. The virus does not choose its victims. Anyone can contract it.

And the arrival of the Indian Coronavirus variant in Madagascar will be problematic. The India, Very harshly struck by the coronavirus epidemic with nearly three hundred thousand new cases detected in 24 hours, faces a cruel lack of oxygen.

This cannot be better in Madagascar. Already with five hundred cases of hospitalization of serious cases, Hospitals have been overwhelmed, Patients were pushed back to the entrance doors and some succumbed, Because medical oxygen lacked.

The measures to follow

The state will take measures to avoid the spread of another variant in Madagascar, As was the case for the South African variant.

Travelers must present the result of a PCR test carried out 72 hours before arrival, and redo a test on arrival.

They will stay in quarantine for eight days. In the event of a positive result of the PCR test, Their confinement will spread fourteen days.

The borders will remain closed to tourists, to people who wish to visit their family or spend a vacation and those who will attend funeral.
