Once a new variant it is found somewhere, you can already assume it is everywhere.
It happened the same way with the Delta variant and the initial outbreak in Europe. It was first found a in a few countries a way, and just two or three cases. Next thing you know, it is in your own country.
I'm not saying that there shouldn't be any travel restrictions, but I am say that they generally are quite too late.
