Public health institute RIVM confirmed six new coronavirus diagnoses
in the Netherlands. These patients were reported to the RIVM on Monday
and are all currently quarantined at home, the health service said.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also updated its travel advice for Japan due to the virus.
According to the RIVM, a total of 24 people have now been diagnosed with Covid-19 in the Netherlands. "Almost all persons diagnosed with the coronavirus are travelers from northern Italy or are family contacts of a previous patient," the health service said. "The source of the infection is still unknown for a few patients. This is still under investigation."
Local departments of municipal health service GGD are currently investigating who the new patients were in contact with.
A spokesperson for the RIVM told NL Times that around 200 people have
been tested for Covid-19 in the country so far. The service is working
on an interactive map so that Netherlands residents can better track
affected areas.
