The Health Ministry issued guidelines on testing for persons who receive mandatory quarantine orders following their return to Slovenia from areas and countries with the new coronavirus variant Omicron.

The ministry urged all testing providers to test those persons with PCR tests and to label their samples as arrivals coming from the areas. The latest guidelines also urge all persons in quarantine due to the risk of importing the new strain to take a PCR test as soon as quarantine is imposed, and then again on the fifth and tenth day.
