I gcásanna den sórt sin, d’fhéadfadh bearta neamhchógaisíochta intíre, mar shampla masc a chaitheamh, aeráil agus scaradh fisiciúil, a bheith éifeachtach chun moill a chur ar leathadh COVID-19, má chuirtear chun feidhme iad go luath cuimsitheach agus má chloítear leo go forleathan sa phobal.
In such situations, domestic non-pharmaceutical interventions, such as mask-wearing, ventilation and physicaldistancing, rather than travel restrictions, may be effective in slowing down the spread of COVID-19, if implemented early and comprehensively and sufficiently put into practice by society.
