The English are abolishing the quarantine requirement for vaccinated citizens from the EU and the USA. So far, tourists who fall under this group have been quarantined after entering the country.

Traveling to England will be easier again from now on. "We help people who live in the US or European countries to reunite with their families and friends in the UK," wrote UK Transport Minister Grant Shapps on Twitter. According to the authorities, the exemption from the quarantine obligation applies to everyone who has been fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or the US FDA.

France, on the other hand, remains on the “red list” - the spread of the beta variant of the coronavirus there is still a thorn in the side of the British government.
