Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the evidential basis is for the decision that adults who have received both doses of a covid-19 vaccine in the UK will need to isolate for 10 days when arriving from France.

From 8 August, arrivals from or transited through France in the last 10 days who have been fully vaccinated under the United Kingdom vaccination programme approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency do not need to quarantine. They are still expected to take a day two test.
