Interesting development and seems to be at odds with previous variations

"Should we close the border to Scotland ?"
Perhaps we should repair Hadrian's Wall.
Donald Trump could consult on this.
Apologies, wrong one
The Bloomberg link is subscription only here’s a different one

Bigger question Roses, if we close the border, should we ever reopen it….
Only yesterday Nicola sturgeon said she was considering closing the border to England, and now Scotland has more cases than England.
Should we close the border to Scotland ?
Nice find tf, very significant I would say.
Rw- also 6 cases in Scotland today as well.
Thanks. Significant indeed and it shows confidence as you say . . .
Chris Denning - Director of University of Nottingham Biodiscovery Institute.
His tweet is probably significant I would suggest.
Nice one RW. I'm not sure who Chris Denning is ?
Sorry, but on a more sombre note : "Japan, Morocco bans foreign travelers as Omicron spreads; new cases reported in Netherlands, Canada, Australia Nov. 29, 2021
Japan will suspend entry of all foreign visitors as a new coronavirus variant spreads, prompting an increasing number of countries to tighten their borders.
“We are taking the step as an emergency precaution to prevent a worst-case scenario in Japan,” Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said. He said the measure will take effect Tuesday. The decision means Japan will restore border controls that it eased earlier this month for short-term business visitors, foreign students and workers. Kishida told reporters that he planned to announce new measures in addition to the current 10-day quarantine requirement for travelers from South Africa and eight other nearby countries.
Many countries have moved to tighten their borders even as scientists warn it’s not clear if the new variant is more alarming than other versions of the virus. Morocco’s Foreign Ministry tweeted Sunday that all incoming air travel to the North African country would be suspended for two weeks starting Monday to “preserve the achievements realized by Morocco in the fight against the pandemic, and to protect the health of citizens.” The Netherlands reported 13 omicron cases on Sunday, and both Canada and Australia each found two. Authorities in Australia said two travelers who arrived in Sydney from Africa became the first in the country to test positive for the new variant. Arrivals from nine African countries are now required to quarantine in a hotel upon arrival. Two German states reported a total of three cases in returning travelers over the weekend. Spain announced it won’t admit unvaccinated British visitors starting Dec. 1. Italy was going through lists of airline passengers who arrived in the past two weeks. France is continuing to push vaccinations and booster shots. Israel moved to ban entry by foreigners and mandate quarantine for all Israelis arriving from abroad." https://seekingalpha.com/news/3774719-japan-morocco-bans-foreign-travelers-as-omicron-spreads-new-cases-reported-in-netherlands-canada-australia?
Interesting to see Chris Denning's tweet being retweeted by Scancell - 'Will #WomenInScience Lindy Durrant, chief scientific officer of @scancellpharma working in @UoN_BDI, provide the ultimate #COVID19 #vaccine solution to the new super variants that are predictably arising? A great addition to their #cancer vaccine now in clinical trial.'
Shows a certain level of confidence imo.
