Regret your family: Dodon urged Moldovan gastarbeiters not to go home

Moldovan President Igor Dodon urged Moldovan gastarbeiters not to come home for Easter holidays. According to the news agency, Dodon said that this year in the context of the coronavirus pandemic migrants should refrain from the tradition of coming to Moldova for Easter holidays to see relatives. Dodon added that the best gift that gastarbeiters can make to their loved ones is not to put them at risk of COVID-19 infection. He added that all those who arrived would have to spend 14 days in quarantine. The Head of State noted that one of the victims of coronavirus in Moldova is an elderly woman who contracted from her relative, who came from abroad and violated the quarantine. Do not put the health of your loved ones at risk: children, parents, grandparents, Dodon urged. Earlier, it should be noted that Romanian President Klaus Johannis made the same appeal to Romanian migrants in Western Europe. In Moldova and Romania Easter holidays are traditionally a period when tens of thousands of gastarbeiters return to their homeland to see their relatives. Meanwhile, coronavirus was brought to Moldova and Romania at the end of February by gastarbeiters returning from earnings in Italy.
