Ps anyone know if the nhs rapid flow home tests count as the antigen test needed to get into France?

In reply to Post #445 I read it the same way, a test before entering to prove negative then the normal uk rules for returning home

In reply to Post #445 I have looked at a few reports on french news site and that is what I am reading Ken as of 9th if you have had both vacination and a negative test you can travel

as far as I can tell this is good news!
We've had both jabs and we do LF testing once a week and we have always been clear so in effect (according to the link) we can go back to France and travel far and wide therein. OK we may have to self isolate for 10 days when we get back but as we are both retired this is not a problem...
Unless I am readign this (link) wrong.

In reply to Post #440 That's not a problem for many of us that work from home, especially when the alternative may be losing a trip that's been booked for almost 3 years

In reply to Post #440 i know, but for those going or planning to go it will be a bit easier once there

Yes but this government has put it onto the amber list so you must isolate when you return

from the daily mail just now
British people who are fully vaccinated against Coronavirus will be able to enter France with proof of a negative antigen test from next week and do not need a 'compelling reason' to be in the country

In reply to Post #435 Absolutely spot on.

In reply to Post #435 This is diappointing as it was looking so good a few weeks ago..... the numbers of hospital admissions and deaths over the next few weeks will either delay or endorse further unlocking.......
But this data can be manipulated to fit the narrative of the government. They can put the emphasis on infection or death or hospitalisation. If we are working purely on the original philosophy of keep the NHS and health service from being overwhelmed then the hospitalisation numbers are good....same for deaths. However if a government wishes to maintain the fear factor, infection rates will be their go to weapon of choice to keep the public terrified of stepping outside their front doors. We've seen it time and again. Moving goal posts and pushing the figures they want. Who can forget the charts showing how well we were doing compared to other countries back at the begining of the pandemic and then, mysteriously, the day our death total hit the highest in Europe we announced it wasn't helpful to publish data comparing ourselves with other countries and that then stopped. Yet come vaccine roll out, we are comparing ourselves with our close neighbors again😂. So predictable.

In reply to Post #433 What matters is hospital admissions and fatalities alongside controlled low numbers of infections.....
It looks like we can expect the final unlocking of restrictions to be pushed back as the following is required....
1 The vaccine deployment programme continues successfully.
2 Evidence shows vaccines are sufficiently effective in reducing hospitalisations and deaths in those vaccinated.
3 Infection rates do not risk a surge in hospitalisations which would put unsustainable pressure on the NHS.
4 Our assessment of the risks is not fundamentally changed by new Variants of Concern.
If willing hosts continue to let the numbers of infections rise and this leads to hospitalisation of the willing hosts then we can expect lockdown to be extended and if required reversed.
You can thank the anti vaccine peeps and the people that are spreading it willingly by ignoring willfully or by accident the guidance. This is not the fault anyone else but the willing hosts of the virus....
So... I think the idea of a trip to France needs to be delayed for a couple of months at the minimum...... This isn't over yet...
This is diappointing as it was looking so good a few weeks ago..... the numbers of hospital admissions and deaths over the next few weeks will either delay or endorse further unlocking
