Colombia will block entry to everyone traveling from abroad from midnight on Monday via SABCNewsOnline
The Andean country earlier this week closed its land and water borders and limited entry through airports to citizens and resident foreigners.
Colombia is also requiring all arrivals to complete a 14-day preventative quarantine. It has closed schools, bars and nightclubs and has delayed the start of the legislative session in Congress. So far 108 people in Colombia have been confirmed infected by coronavirus, most of them after traveling in Europe or the United States. No deaths related to the illness have been confirmed.
On Tuesday the country ordered people aged 70 and over to stay home from Friday until the end of May, except for trips to purchase food, get medical care or complete financial transactions.
