Two passengers — who landed at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (HSIA) from Spain and Italy on Monday morning — have been sent to a hospital.
“They were sent to hospital for check-up as they had high temperature,” said HSIA Director Group Captain AHM Touhid-ul Ahsan.
When asked about the two Bangladeshis infected with coronavirus, returned from Italy, he said, “We have no information when they returned and by which airline. We are trying to find out as other passengers, crew, and pilots of that flight need check-ups too.”
Two men and a woman — aged between 20 and 35 — tested positive for the virus on Saturday. Two of them are from a family.
They are now undergoing treatment at a hospital in the capital. Three more Bangladeshis who came in contact with them have been quarantined — two in a hospital and one at home.
