Italian tourist turned out to be infected with the virus
According to the travel organizations, hotel guests must remain in quarantine for fourteen days. This was decided because an Italian tourist staying at the hotel turned out to carry the COVID-19 virus. According to the Spanish newspaper El País the Italian, who is an art, comes from the Lombardy region. In this Italian region, the vast majority of the infections in the country have been detected.
The last days it was difficult for tourists to leave the island. This was because a sandstorm paralyzed the airports. In addition, crowds on the island are expected in the coming weeks due to carnival celebrations.
