KUWAIT CITY, Feb 24: There is an electronic link between the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Health to enable the police patrol teams to verify those infected with the COVID-19 virus or those subjected to home or institutional quarantine, security sources say.

They explained that the patrol teams can easily detect those quarantined by simply inquiring through their devices. Legal measures are taken against those who violate quarantine requirements, as they will be arrested and charged.

There are strict instructions for those who are subjected to quarantine to use the “Shlonak” app and not neglect it, and to take the necessary measures.

The various ministries of the state will also not receive citizens or residents who are under home or institutional quarantine because there is an electronic link that reveals the person’s status of whether or not he is quarantined or not, and whether or not he was infected or in contact with an infected person.
