Muscat: India's Kerala state has revised the quarantine guidelines under COVID-19 protocol giving relief to the recovered patients.


There are scheduled flights available for Kerala from Muscat in the coming days.


The revised quarantine guidelines pointed out that everyone who returns to Kerala from other states and abroad must observe 14 days of quarantine.


As per the revised quarantine guidelines, compulsory quarantine of 7 days is not mandatory for people who have recovered from COVID-19 and discharged from the hospital.
