UK imposes stricter curbs on travellers from Denmark

London, Nov 9 : Freight drivers who are not British citizens and have been driving through Denmark in the last two weeks have been warned by the UK government that they will be turned away from the border.
The latest measures on Sunday were taken after people voiced their concerns over a new coronavirus strain that has spread from minks to humans in Denmark, reports Xinhua news agency.
British citizens can return from Denmark, but will have to isolate along with all members of their household for 14 days.
Cabin crew are also no longer exempt from the rules, which Ryanair described as a “bizarre and baseless” move, according to the BBC.
The new rules, which began at 4 a.m. on Sunday, follow a ban on non-British citizens coming to the UK from Denmark.
Five so-called clusters of coronavirus mutations derived from farmed mink in Denmark have now been found in 214 people.
