In the article, we analyse whether an obligation to self-isolate should be viewed as interference with the right to liberty and security or with the freedom of movement for each of these groups. The analysis focuses on the Constitution of Ukraine and the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. We also study circumstances when the above-mentioned rights can be limited lawfully in cases related to spread of infectious diseases, such as COVID-19. This article questions if the actions of Ukrainian government and existing legal regulation of obligatory self-isolation meet the requirements of lawful limitation of rights. (Less)
