                      Kuwait bans visas as another coronavirus case confirmed
                      01/03/2020
                      By B Izzak

                      KUWAIT: Although only four new coronavirus cases have been discovered over the past three days, Kuwait yesterday stepped up measures to prevent the spread of the deadly diseases, including a total ban on all types of visas for visitors. The National Assembly cancelled a scheduled emergency meeting yesterday in a bid to contain “sectarian exchanges” on social media, and Speaker Marzouq Al-Ghanem said it was premature to decide if the ordinary session on March 10 will also be cancelled. The public food authority has instructed all restaurants and cafes that all waiters must wear facemasks and gloves and that restaurants must provide sanitizers to clients.

                      The ministry of health said yesterday a new case tested positive in one of the people who returned from Iran and was at the quarantine set up by the ministry, raising the total number of cases to 46, placing Kuwait at the top of Gulf countries in the number of infections. Only new four cases were discovered in the past three days, but MP Adnan Abdulsamad said that a new group of Kuwaitis who were repatriated yesterday have not yet been tested by health ministry staff, raising the prospect of more cases.

                      The interior ministry yesterday slapped a total ban on all types of visas for all nationalities, only allowing entry to foreigners who hold legal residencies in the country, except those who visited infected countries. Kuwait had cut all transport links to Iran and several other countries as GCC citizens no longer can use their IDs to travel between Gulf countries and must have their passports.

                      Kuwait also said people traveling from Egypt to Kuwait will be subjected to medical tests before boarding the plane to the country as a precautionary measure amid rumors that Egypt has many cases of coronavirus but is not announcing them, an accusation that Egyptian authorities have denied. MP Majed Al-Mutairi called on authorities to prepare contingency plans to repatriate Kuwaiti students from Egypt in case Cairo announces a large number of cases...

                        Written By Zaini Majeed | Mumbai | Updated On: March 02, 2020 18:00 IST

                        Kuwait has reportedly announced 10 new cases of the coronavirus as of March 2 soaring the total count to 56, confirmed the Health ministry official at a news conference. The official urged the citizens to avoid large assembly as a precautionary measure to assist the Gulf State in its fight against the spread of the disease.

                        According to the reports, majority cases that have emerged in Kuwait, including the recent ones, are the people that have a travel history to Iran. Kuwait had earlier warned its citizens against travelling to the nations that are excessively impacted and had a widespread outbreak from the disease. The ministry had announced that was going to test the foreign nationals coming from Egypt and Syria on all the airlines for coronavirus upon their arrival and departure within the country...
