The pandemic is too high for such a great risk .

He rather Isolate himself or go back wherever he is coming from.

Or if worse follow my advice on route to take via going home.

If the man got tested at the port na only self quarantine for him house remain, you shouldn't bar him from the state.

In a hotel? If he happens to come out positive at the end of the day, that hotel will be sealed and lose business. na wa
