In the next few days, Germany will introduce compulsory COVID-19 testing for passengers arriving from countries considered to be high-risk.

Some critics have argued that testing passengers is no guarantee of containing the virus and that enforced quarantine periods are the only way to guard against false negative results.

But Germany's health minister, Jens Spahn, says the measures will be introduced at airports and train stations later this week.

It means that anyone traveling from an area deemed to have a high infection risk will be tested on arrival in Germany.
