Stringent border controls including hotel quarantine and jail terms of up to ten years for people who try to conceal their arrival from high-risk countries were announced yesterday by the health secretary.
Matt Hancock said new restrictions for travellers arriving in Britain would be applied from Monday.
Anyone from 33 “red list” countries who lies about where they have travelled from will be prosecuted and face a maximum sentence of ten years. Those who try to avoid quarantine could be fined £10,000.
