Indonesia: Covid-positive man boards flight disguised as wife
A Covid-positive Indonesian man who disguised himself as his wife to board a domestic flight was caught mid-air. The man, who has only been identified by his initials, DW, wore a full-face veil known as a niqab to board. He was also carrying his wife’s passport and her negative Covid test result. He may never have been caught if he had not changed into his regular clothes midway through the flight, causing a stewardess to raise the alarm. Most airlines have restricted travel during the Eidh al-Adha holiday which began on 19 July. Police told reporters that the man was detained after the plane landed and was tested immediately. Upon discovering he was positive for the virus, he was ordered to self-isolate at home.(BBC)…[+]
