This 10 day period would contain mass testing and 24/7 security. All travellers would be charged for their hotel accommodation unless they can provide a valid medical exemption for not being able to self-isolate. This would also provide an income for the hospitality sector.
It may seem excessive, but considering the success of Australia & New Zealand, it is the only viable option in opening the economy back up sooner and preventing the spread of new variants from overseas travellers.
