Bahrain’s Civil Aviation Authority yesterday reduced the quarantine period for unvaccinated children arriving from non-red list countries. Accordingly, unvaccinated children between 6 and 12 years of age, reaching Bahrain from non-red list countries, will have to remain in quarantine only for five days.
The decision follows approval by the Government Executive and the National Medical Taskforce for Combatting the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The latest decision is effective Sunday. Passengers coming from red list countries, including those below six years, must quarantine for ten days.
All other COVID-19 pre-cautionary measures continue to remain in place. Additionally, non-vaccinated students should complete a mandatory ten days distance learning upon entering Bahrain.
“This measure will apply to those attending schools, kindergartens, rehabilitation centres, nurseries, training centres and institutes,” said the CAA statement.
