Carolina Pimenta tested positive for the virus along with 60 other passengers and had remained isolated in a local hotel with her husband, Andrés Sanz, the couple told TV3, the regional broadcaster of Spain’s Catalonia region where they both live.
Pimenta said that Dutch authorities initially cleared her for travel after three days of isolation, instead of the mandatory five days, because she had already recovered from COVID-19 less than 6 months ago.
But on Sunday she was arrested after boarding the plane that was supposed to take her to Spain.
“We were transparent at all times, I showed all the documents, we entered (the plane) and suddenly they called me and the police very aggressively treated us like criminals when they had given us the go-ahead, all without informing us at all,” Pimenta told TV3.
A married couple who tested positive for COVID-19 have been arrested after fleeing a quarantine hotel in the Netherlands before attempting to leave the country.
The couple had been staying at a quarantine hotel in the Kennmerland region, where travellers from South Africa who have tested positive for COVID-19 are self-isolating.

I guess they could be sent to China. They have a lovely way of dealing with people who don't do what they are told.

Probably. They could put me in a camp with all of the Uighurs. That would teach me to do what I'm told.

Some are even thicker now.
We have endless information, facts and figures at the click of a button, back then they had to rely on word of mouth.

Paine refuted the notion that Americans should be loyal to a mother country that he considered a bad parent. “Even brutes do not devour their young, nor savages make war upon their families,” he wrote. Besides, he argued, America’s real connection was to people everywhere who yearned to escape oppression. "This new world hath been the asylum for the persecuted lovers of civil and religious liberty from every part of Europe," Paine proclaimed. "Hither have they fled, not from the tender embraces of the mother, but from the cruelty of the monster; and it is so far true of England, that the same tyranny which drove the first emigrants from home, pursues their descendants still."
Thomas Paine used the printing press to rile up Americans.
It worked.

Yes I have smarty-pants, but many people didn't have access to papers.

True, or the ability to read them.
But pamphlets and papers were widely used to share opinions, and influence/ engage the masses

People are quarantined for a reason.
What do you think should happen to them?
Me?
Nothing.
I guess they could be sent to China. They have a lovely way of dealing with people who don't do what they are told.
