Britain will ease coronavirus quarantine for some countries, details this week

Thu, 02nd Jul 2020 13:08

LONDON, July 2 (Reuters) - Britain will be easing the
quarantine measures for air travellers, a spokesman for Prime
Minister Boris Johnson said on Thursday, adding that more
details of plan will be released this week.

"As we set out earlier this week ... we will be easing
health measures at the border by allowing passengers arriving
from specific countries and territories to be exempted from
self-isolation requirements," the spokesman told reporters,
adding that the details would come this week.

The government said on Friday it would ditch a 14-day
quarantine period for people arriving from countries it deems to
be lower risk for COVID-19, but has as yet not listed the
countries that would include.
