Coronavirus Madagascar
From MadaCamp
- 21 March 2020: Three cases of corona infected passengers are detected arriving on three separate flights on 17th, 18th and 19th March from France, with one of the infected passing through Mauritius. These passengers are in treatment and all passangers on the same flight in quarantine. Schools around the country have been ordered to suspend lessons for 14 days.
- 20 March 2020: Madagascar closes its borders for incoming and outgoing passenger air travel. Hotels on Nosy Be close and many hotel workers lost their jobs, resulting in a wave of crime and security problems on the island which normally rely on tourism. The situation is tense. Meanwhile the Tourism Minister announces to a group of hotel operators during a meeting on the island that the travel ban will be for 90 days, previously reported 30 days in media.
