As part of the regulations adopted, all companies operating routes to and from the aforementioned region were ordered to require drivers to make the respective stops at the sanitary control points established by the Ministry of Health, the Departmental or Municipal Health Secretariat. Necessary measures were also urged to ensure that visitors arriving in Kolyma, especially in the southern and eastern municipalities, have received the yellow fever vaccine at least 10 days before entering the department.
