The company trip BA245 British Airways It landed at Ezeiza International Airport from London yesterday at 9:10, ten minutes before the estimated time of arrival. The 175 passengers waited at least three hours inside the plane: they had traveled for more than thirteen hours from the other side of the Atlantic.. A health bubble waited for them in the airport lounge, after the government decided to suspend all flights with Great Britain due to the emergence of a new strain of Corona virus.
There was confusion and improvisation and a special and sudden protocol was implemented that forced the sanitation and the release of the immigration zone to avoid contagion of other passengers who arrived on two other flights from Europe – Air France at 8.45 am from Paris and Iberia at 8.55 from Madrid.
Relatives who waited outside the Ezeiza platforms dealt with various, informal information: media copies and orders they shared from passengers who could be contacted from inside the plane. There were reports that all of them would be isolated in a hotel in Buenos Aires, or that a series of groups had been arranged to send travelers at home addresses.
Without official information from the ministries that coordinated the reception of the last authorized flight from the United Kingdom, the Health and Transport File and the National Directorate of Immigration (DNM), affiliated with the Ministry of the Interior, the special operation that was installed at the airport was reported by a passenger and in charge of the tests.

They are exactly the same tests we do in clinics, sanatoriums and hospitals in molecular biology laboratories, but at the right time. He warned that the result would be reached within two hours. What he didn’t know was whether he should have scanned the seventy passengers or the five who got on the plane without doing a previous PCR scan.
