Finally the Covid tests for vaccinated travelers to England and the quarantine for unvaccinated

London: Thanasis Gavos

The obligation for fully vaccinated travelers arriving in England from abroad to undergo a diagnostic coronavirus test ceases to apply from the dawn of Friday 11 February.

The British government currently stipulates that double-vaccinated travelers must have pre-ordered a rapid antigen test before their trip and do so by the end of the second day following the day of arrival on English soil.

Fully vaccinated people do not have to isolate themselves until the test results come out, nor do they need to be tested before the flight to England.

Announcing the changes, Transport Minister Grand Saps told the House of Commons that from February 11, all those who are fully vaccinated will now have to complete the passenger tracking form before their trip.

Mr Saps also announced that from the same day, the obligation for those travelers who are not fully vaccinated to be isolated when they arrive in England and to undergo a second diagnostic test on the eighth day of arrival will be abolished.

However, those who are not vaccinated will still be required to take a diagnostic test before leaving for England and a molecular test on the second day of arrival.
