Dutch military police say they have arrested a married couple who left a hotel where they were in quarantine after testing positive for Covid-19 and were attempting to flee the country.

The couple were arrested “in an airplane that was about to depart”, the police force, known as the Marechaussee, said in a statement..

The Amsterdam newspaper Het Parool reported that the couple, a Spanish man and Portuguese woman, were attempting to fly to Spain.

Dozens of passengers who tested positive for Covid-19 after arriving on two flights from South Africa on Friday were being kept in quarantine....

a companion article in the Mirror says 61 of the 600 passengers that arrived Friday tested positive and were under quarantine

"Rules on the company's website said passengers had to present a negative Covid-19 "rapid antigen" test result taken 24 hours before departure.

However, they had not been required to show proof of vaccination."

It was reported earlier that the first case to arrive in Belgium was unvaccinated but had also tested negative prior to flight in line with the airline's rules.

With side effects described as sniffles and lethargy, I say we lock them up, and then lock it all down.

[arrest couple trying to flee quarantine for Spain]

How dare they!

If I told you, 3 years ago, you’d be locked-down and not able to travel to any “free” country freely, you would have laughed in my face.

As a snare has this come upon the world.

This is not THE snare but the mere fact that it’s worldwide is an attention-getter.

back to border lockdowns and restricted activity:There’s only one case in Canada, a few in Scotland now, but none? in the US and Mexico. I don’t think anyone’s said what the incubation period is yet, but we should find out from the quarantines that are the new guinea pigs. So I guess we’ll know in a week or two what’s up or if it’s a big nothingburger.

from the Daily Mail,
Germany will only allow German nationals back in with 14 day quarantine on reentry, England, mandatory quarantine of 11 days on reentry and $3K for hotel, please, and Italy is “ banning entry to those who have been in South Africa, Lesotho, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Namibia or Eswatini in the past fortnight.” The US/CDC has changed the website to read both vaccination and negative test, instead of one or the other. I dunno if the 15 flights a day continue. The Czechs and Israel have banned flights from South Africa and surrounding countries. I think Germany also wants to ban Brits just because they think it’s fun to poke at their cousin.

Where has common sense gone? It seems all the sniffles, colds and general aches & pains we used to chalk up to seasonal changes are now some version of COVID that needs a vaccine booster. The quicker we start saying NO, the sooner the System loses it’s grip.

It really was a cunning way to control everyone. Nearly half the people believe the tyrants, the other half they force.

I’ll have a read on that soon. A friend is supposed to return to ATL from RSA today on Delta.
