SPKC also said that, as with several new cases in recent days, the latest infected person had returned from abroad, though the name of the country in question was not specified. Underlining the potential threat of importing cases from abroad, the SPKC also released a video urging poeple not to take people recently returned from overseas into their homes. It shows a door being unceremoniously closed in someone's face which may go against traidtions of hospitality but is probably for the best.
