Zimbabwe’s Health Minister, Dr Obadiah Moyo has said that “anybody” visiting Zimbabwe from China has to self-quarantine for 14 to 21days.
China is a coronavirus affected country and the fear is that people who will be coming from China will be carrying the virus.
However, it is not clear how effective self-quarantining is as some individuals may choose not to subject themselves to the procedure.
