Interesting that Boris might use double jab status as an incentive to get younger people to be vaccinated in order to travel!
Much will change in the next 2 months!
From the Independent today:
‘There are also reasonable medical grounds for saying that people who have had both jabs are likely to present a lower risk to the UK population than those who have not.
But for the government to say that vaccinated travellers will get a fast track when they come back into the UK would be a politically contentious move.
One rumour doing the rounds in the travel industry says that the prime minister may announce easier travel for people who have had both jabs precisely to boost the uptake of vaccines – by incentivising particularly younger people to be vaccinated to allow them to go abroad and return without undue
Will other countries want us?
Yes, and many of our favourite destinations are settling into a pattern of “JTR”: “jab, test or recovered”? Croatia has become the latest Mediterranean country to say it has opened its borders to tourists who can produce evidence of a vaccination certificate, recovery from infection or a negative Covid test taken within 48 hours of arrival.
Thanks to the remarkable success of the UK’s vaccine roll-out, British holidaymakers have gone from the “sick men and women of Europe” to the “golden girls and boys of summer” – with UK travellers seen as presenting a reduced risk compared with other locations.
Turkey has said it will welcome people from the UK whether or not they have had the jab.
