My Twilight Zone return and quarantine experience

I am from batch flight KA725 from Hong Kong, that flew into the country on April 29 with just nine passengers. I arrived in Kuala Lumpur feeling anxious, wondering where I would be taken for my 14-day quarantine. We were greeted by officers and staff who asked us to line up in a single file. The airport was very quiet and eerie, like it was in a Twilight Zone, and everyone had masks on.

We were taken systematically through the airport, guided by different groups of officers at various points, like immigration, baggage collection, etc, with lines on the floor to help us maintain the correct distance. There was a health check point with health officers in pink and white hazmat suits where we had nose swabs done. I was scared and held onto the lady officer’s hand, and she was very gentle and made me feel comfortable.
