Prime Minister Gaston Browne has told returning residents and citizens not to abuse their home quarantine.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Only a handful of residents were quarantine on Thursday and 30 were quarantined last night at the Hawksbill Hotel. This means that the majority of Antiguans who returned home are in self quarantine.<\/p>\n

Browne says there is a stringent monitoring process in place to ensure that these individuals abide by the self quarantine. He said the individuals who disobey the self quarantine could be placed in a government facility for the duration of the 14-day period.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The prime minister also defended the number of people being placed in home quarantine. He said many of the people who came in on the first two flights were families and individuals who were going into the same empty home.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The country’s leader is calling on those who will be quarantined in hotels not to complain about paying the EC$ 100 per night fee. He said the sum is merely for meals and that the government is carrying most of the cost of the accommodation which is about US$ 150 per night per person.<\/p>\n
