The ICAO added that France, Pakistan, Albania, Andorra, Bahrain, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Colombia, Egypt, Ecuador, Hungary, Jordan, Kosovo, Latvia, Lebanon, Malta, Moldavia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, occupied Palestine, Saint Lucia, Serbia, the Seychelles, Slovenia, Sweden, Syria, Tanzania and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are among the countries with a high risk of the coronavirus infection.
