Flights to and from the UK have been suspended for two weeks, as the new Covid-19 strain spreads rapidly in the European country, according to the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development’s deputy for transportation affairs.
“This measure has been taken at the request of the Health Ministry and the National Coronavirus Headquarters, in order to prevent the transmission of this new strain into the country and to protect our people’s health,” IRNA also quoted Shahram Adamnejad as saying.
Similar measures have been taken by several European Union member states to protect their citizens from contracting the new mutation of Covid-19, which is said to be 70% more transmissible.
