LONDON, July 9 (Reuters) - Britain plans to scrap quarantine
for fully-vaccinated arrivals from other countries in the coming
weeks, transport minister Grant Shapps said on Friday, a day
after announcing a rule change for those in Britain who had had
both shots.
"We want to be able open that up for people. We're actively
working on it," Shapps told Sky News. "In the next couple of
weeks I'll be able to come forward and say more about other
locations in the world."
He announced on Thursday that fully vaccinated British
residents arriving in England from medium risk amber countries
would no longer have to self-isolate on arrival.
Shapps said the process of recognising vaccination status
would focus on countries administering WHO-approved vaccines,
and said the process was complex because each country has
different certification systems.
"It's easier from the EU because they're creating their own
digital passport, it's more complicated from other countries -
the U.S. for example don't have a digitised system," Shapps said
in a separate interview with the BBC.
