LONDON, July 9 (Reuters) - Britain plans to scrap quarantine
for fully-vaccinated arrivals from other countries in the coming

"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."
