I think you will find the 67 went to hospital quarantine and the 40 sent to quarantine at home. The OP isnt that clear but does mention testing, "However, their test results were negative." and hospitial, "Arrangements were in place to take returnees showing infection symptoms to hospitals." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be like you post, but I thought it was quite clear.

That´s why they call it quarantine facilities and not hospitals. At least I get it like that. ???? If it is like you post, that they hospitalized 67 out of 107. Then that´s a great percentage record of over 60% taken too hospital, which I do not believe at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first photograph seems a little ridiculous just spraying the outside of the backpack/bundle. What about the inside and the contents. Just curious. 'nuf sed.
