AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – The Dutch government plans to order mandatory quarantine for people who are known to have been exposed to the coronavirus, national broadcaster NOS reported on Tuesday, citing a letter to parliament.
The decision follows a 55% jump in the number of positive cases in the country to 4,036 in the past week from 2,588 cases the week before.
