I am trying to understand why countries have 14 days quarantine on visitors from abroad.
OK, if Ireland is virus-free and China is the epicentre, then we should ban or quarantine visitors from China.
But why is Britain with a high incidence of the virus banning visitors from countries with a much lower level?
If we had quarantined everywhere back in October, it would have worked.
And if Ireland becomes virus-free, it might be necessary to keep the virus out.
But if we allow travel within Ireland at some stage, why would we not allow travel from outside Ireland?
