GEORGE TOWN: Low-risk Covid-19 patients who wish to quarantine themselves without endangering their family members and yet keep their creature comforts can now choose to do so in some hotels, for a fee.

From posh meals to plush spring mattresses and extra large bathrooms, low-risk Covid-19 patients and even whole families struck by the disease can hole up in the luxury of hotel rooms while their bodies fight the virus.
