i Invitees who indicated they were “unable” to leave the country may have been warned against travelling internationally by police or may have decided not to risk it, based on the restrictions they were already facing. Regardless of whether an invitee actually tried to leave the country or not, it is our understanding that, since this list was made public, anyone whose name appears on it would have been stopped at the border, as that was the experience of all who made the attempt to leave the country in recent weeks
