COVID-19 in Tanzania
To date (March 17), there has only been a single case of COVID-19 diagnosed in Tanzania, who happened to be a foreign national that was flying from Belgium via Rwanda. The person was quickly diagnosed and quarantined, and as a preventative measure the government took action to close schools for the rest of March just to be safe.
The Government of Tanzania has, furthermore, implemented enhanced screening and quarantine measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Travelers should be prepared for unexpected travel restrictions to be put into effect with little or no advance notice.
Individuals suspected of having COVID-19 may face travel delays, quarantine, and high medical costs, so please do not fly to Tanzania if you suspect yourself of having contracted the virus.
We will of course monitor the situation and keep our upcoming guests informed as to any developments in the situation here on the ground.
