I-ACI EUROPE (i-Airports Council International) kunye ne-International Air Transport Association (IATA) ibongoze ooRhulumente baseYurophu ukuba basuse zonke izithintelo zokuhamba kubantu abagonywe ngokupheleleyo/abachachisiweyo abaphethe iSatifikethi esisebenzayo se-COVID- njengoko kucetyiswa ngurhulumente omtsha wokuhamba ngaphakathi. EU eqala ukusebenza namhlanje.
Olu lawulo lutsha, lumiselwe ngu EU I-Recommendation Council eyamkelwe nge-25 kaJanuwari, isekelwe kwimeko yezempilo yabahambi, kunokuba imeko ye-epidemiological yelizwe labo okanye indawo yemvelaphi.
Uphando oluzimeleyo oluqhutywe eFinland nase-Italiya lunika ingqiqo ekuphuhliseni umgaqo-nkqubo weYurophu ngokubanzi wokususa izithintelo. Uphando olwenziwe esidlangalaleni namhlanje luqinisekisa ubunyani bendlela yokujonga umhambi, iqaqambisa ukungasebenzi kwezithintelo zakutsha nje zokuhamba ezibekwe ngamazwe aseYurophu ekunciphiseni umngcipheko kwimpilo yoluntu kunye noluntu olwenziwa yi-COVID-19.
Uhlalutyo olutsha oluveliswe yi-Oxera kunye ne-Edge Health lubonisa ukuba iimfuno zovavanyo lwangaphambi kokuhamba zinokungasebenzi ekumiseni okanye nasekuthinteleni ukusasazeka kwentsholongwane. Micron ukwahluka. Uhlalutyo lwezithintelo zovavanyo ezibekwe yi-Italiya neFinland nge-16 kaDisemba kunye ne-28 kaDisemba 2021 ngokulandelelanayo kubo bonke abahambi abangenayo akwenzanga mahluko ukwahlulayo ekusasazeni. Micron amatyala kula mazwe. Ngokuchaseneyo, impembelelo yezi zithintelo, kwaye ngokukodwa imida yokuhamba ngokukhululekileyo kwabantu, ibangele ubunzima obubalulekileyo kunye obungeyomfuneko kwezoqoqosho - kungekhona nje kumacandelo okuhamba kunye nokhenketho kunye nabasebenzi babo, kodwa kulo lonke uqoqosho lwaseYurophu.
Ngokucacileyo, ingxelo ikwabonisa ukuba:
- Ukugcina iimfuno zovavanyo lwaphambi kokuhamba kubakhenkethi abagonyiweyo/ababuyiselweyo kwakhona akusayi kuba nempembelelo ekusasazekeni kwekamva. Micron ezahlukeneyo eItali naseFinland.
- Ukubeka ezi zithintelo kwangethuba - oko kukuthi, kwangaloo mini Micron Ukwahluka kwachongwa njengomba yi-WHO- ngengazange ikuyekise ukusasazeka kwayo okanye ukuyinciphisa kakhulu e-Itali naseFinland. Oku kungokwemvelo kwinto yokuba ukwahluka kujikeleza kakuhle phambi kwexesha ezichongwe ngalo, seso sizathu sokuba zombini i-WHO kunye ne-ECDC ngokubanzi zithathele ingqalelo izithintelo zokuhamba njengengasebenziyo.
INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- The research made public today confirms the validity of the traveler-centric approach, highlighting the inefficiency of recent travel restrictions imposed by European countries in mitigating the risks to public health and society posed by COVID-19.
- This is inherent to the fact that variants circulate well ahead of the time by which they are identified, which is the reason why both the WHO and ECDC generally consider travel restrictions to be ineffective.
- The analysis of testing restrictions imposed by Italy and Finland on 16 December and 28 December 2021 respectively on all incoming travelers made no distinguishable difference to transmission of Omicron cases in those countries.
