More than half of those who had been held at the hotel are now free to continue their travels.

Dutch health authorities said that more than 20 passengers who have been in quarantine since testing positive for Covid-19 after flying from SA on November 26 will be allowed to leave on Thursday.

They will also not disclose or discuss the seriousness of those patients' symptoms, the spokesperson added, also citing privacy reasons. Of 62 passengers who tested positive for Covid-19, 44 were held in isolation in a hotel near Schiphol airport, while some Dutch citizens have been in quarantine at home.

“People that tested positive will remain in isolation. Their situation varies ... some have symptoms, others don't or barely,” GGD Kennemerland director Bert van Velden said in a statement.
