    OBJECTIVE: Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the implementation of quarantine for returning travellers and the effect this has on people's mental health has become a topical issue. This article briefly describes the historical context of quarantine, research around its impact on people's well-being, and the experiences of a clinical psychologist providing support to people in quarantine. CONCLUSIONS: Mental health professionals are in a unique position to assist people in quarantine, both in terms of counselling and ongoing research.
