UK government said it will soon announce a plan to allow double-vaccinated foreigners and British expatriates entry to the country

UK government said it will soon announce a plan to allow double-vaccinated foreigners and British expatriates entry to the country

The UK government said on Friday that it will soon announce a plan to allow double-vaccinated foreigners and British expatriates entry to the country as it lifts most coronavirus curbs.
Many scientists are worried that the government's plan to lift most curbs in England on July 19, and the green light to a large presence at Sunday's European Championship final final, will seed new outbreaks of Covid-19.
The government further announced on Thursday that from July 19, fully vaccinated UK residents and children will no longer have to quarantine on their return to England. The announcement makes summer travel easier to some of Britons' favourite holiday destinations.

Germany's health agency has said that it would lift a ban on most travellers from India, the UK, and three other countries hit by the Delta variant of Covid-19.
It said India, Nepal, Russia, Portugal and the UK, currently listed as so-called virus variant countries, would be reclassified from Wednesday as "high-incidence areas".
The change will ease a ban on entry for travellers who are not German residents or citizens. But they will have to still follow the quarantine and testing rules.
Health Minister Jens Spahn had said last week that the Delta variant was fast becoming dominant in Germany, meaning that bans on most travellers from countries hit by that variant may be lifted.
Only citizens and residents of Germany are permitted to enter from a variant country and are subject to a two-week quarantine, regardless of whether they are fully vaccinated or can provide a negative Covid-19 test.
