Omicron alert: Govt revises guidelines for International travellers | Full list

The centre has revised COVID guidelines for international flyers. Under the new guidelines which will be applicable from February 14, the Union Health Ministry has removed the mandatory 7-day quarantine rule. Now passengers travelling to India can self-monitor for 14 days and isolate if they develop COVID symptoms. The ‘at-risk’ tag for countries has also been removed. "Accordingly, the need for giving samples on port of arrival and waiting till the result is obtained from countries ‘at-risk’ is dispensed with," Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya tweeted. The change in guidelines comes at a time when COVID-19 cases are reducing and there’s an improvement in the infection rate across the world. Watch the video for more details.
