Following the UK's departure from the European Union, we continue to engage and cooperate with the EU, and with European Member States, through normal diplomatic channels - as with our other global partners.

We continue to access all EU health security alerting systems, databases and networks during the transition period, including the Early Warning and Response System (EWRS), which we have used to share information in response to the pandemic, and to attend EU Health Security Committee meetings where it is in our interests to do so.
