The advice is that these were changes made since 24 August. As I read it, that would be the additional security and quarantine measures that were implemented as a result of this particular outbreak. I am not sure of the extent to which those practices were undertaken before 24 August and whether that was part of the protocol. As to whether things may have been somewhat more lax prior to 24 August, I am unable to assist in that regard.
