Home quarantine for returnees


PUTRAJAYA: Malaysians returning to the country from overseas will be able to self-isolate at their own homes, instead of government-approved quarantine centres nationwide, starting Wednesday.

Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said that from that day, Malaysian returnees will undergo a swab test upon arrival at airports.
