Countries asking visitors to show negative PCR tests taken within 96 hours of their departure--Why are they so dumb!

 

Several countries are asking visitors to provide a negative COVID-19 test result, with the test being done within 96 hours (4 days) of the departure time.  These countries include Brazil, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Iran, Russia, and others.  This policy of checking the health of the travelers makes sense for a country that is completely free of COVID-19 and does not want a visitor to bring the virus to the land.  But there are not very many places left in the world that have not been exposed to COVID-19.

So now, Brazil with over 165,000 COVID-19 deaths so far, is concerned a traveler will introduce the country to Corona! Hello!!!  Has the virus affected the brains of the government officials of these countries?

Yes, the airlines should save their crew members from the virus and this should be done by quickly checking the passengers before they board the plane, but countries asking travelers to provide negative PCR test results is not very smart.  Please stop this nonsense.
