Kuwait may exempt vaccinated people from quarantine
Kuwait’s Undersecretary of General Health at the Ministry of Health, Dr. Buthayna Al Mudhaf, has said they are considering exempting vaccinated people from mandatory quarantine in a hotel, Kuwait’s state-owned news agency KUNA reported.
Al Mudhaf said the ministry is closely monitoring international studies before making a decision.
Currently, anyone arriving in Kuwait is required to conduct seven-days of mandatory quarantine in a hotel at their own expense. Those who are exempt from the decision are Kuwaiti students studying abroad, Kuwaiti patients undergoing medical treatment abroad and their companions, members of the diplomatic core and health workers.
That said, non-Kuwaitis are barred from entering Kuwait until further notice as per a decision from the government issued a month ago.
