The Ministry of Health underlined that the necessary legal measures will be taken against violators of Public Health Law No. 34 of 2018, which include a prison term of not less than 3 months and a fine of not less than BD 1,000, for an individual who intentionally conceals a person with a contagious disease or exposes others to diseases, or who intentionally causes the transmission of diseases to others, or refrains from carrying out any measure to prevent the spread of the disease.
The Ministry urges all citizens and residents to abide by the health guidelines provided to ensure the containment of the COVID-19, which include 14 day self-isolation for those returning from COVID-19 affected countries.
