You can blame the press and social media for this - every time someone pops a picture on F@cebook of a Qatar or PIA flight inbound to MAN there’s a barrage of comments demanding to know why everyone on it isn’t being quarantined despite in most cases the country the flight originated in having a much smaller outbreak. The press has been egging them on, and the government takes more notice of the press than hammering the point that the risk from these inbounds is pretty small in the context of the UK’s current state.
