The government is reportedly considering a quarantine exemption for Brits who have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19.

Remember these? Covid could yet still rear its head over the winter

The Telegraph reports the move would allow arrivals into England to skip quarantine if they’ve had both their jabs.


Such a relaxation of the rules would, in effect, turn amber list destinations green for those who have been fully vaccinated.


This would open up Spain, Greece, France, Italy and a host of other popular European destinations, as well as some further afield.


According to The Telegraph, health secretary Matt Hancock has intimated he would be open to the suggestion, although the plan would still involve some form of testing requirement.
