Myanmar’s military government accused two US nationals and embassy staff of breaking health protocols for Covid-19-detected patients, according to a statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The junta stated that a US diplomatic passport holder and another US employee of the embassy who were tested positive for Covid-19 were transferred to the properties of the US embassy to take treatment without any permission from the authorities concerned, despite being informed to admit the patients to designated hospitals.
The ministry strongly condemned the embassy’s action and called for strict adherence to pandemic restrictions, saying this could adversely affect public health of the host country and blatantly violates the provisions of the Vienna Convention.
