Poland implemented full checks at its border crossings for at least the next 10 days in an attempt to better contain the coronavirus outbreak.

Premier Mateusz Morawiecki said on Friday that the government would quarantine Polish nationals as well as foreigners crossing into the country, while allowing trade to continue. The country is part of the European Union’s Schengen zone which allows for free travel of goods and people.
