Norway advises citizens to avoid all travel abroad
Unfortunately, it&#x27;s only advisory. The government should set up a 5000 NOK (at least) &quot;traveling fine&quot; per person, and obligatory quarantine (&quot;home&quot; confinement in state-provided guarded quarters) upon entry. THAT would discourage people from traveling. So those who MUST travel can plan ahead and know what they&#x27;re up to, the rest will give up. AFAIK, insurance companies announced that they&#x27;ll refuse travel-insurance claims due to corona if traveling to &quot;red&quot; countries.<p>The national health institute here opines that closing the borders has questionable or no effect, even though most of the cases in the 1st wave got imported from ski-resorts in Italy. I really don&#x27;t get how keeping borders open only for goods traffic won&#x27;t help with reducing imported cases. Something doesn&#x27;t add up.
