it is the strain... uk was first in vaccinations and it is only logical that virus will mutate and change there the most to survive and spread again... pure biology...

It's been like that since the 9th, as long as you have a negative test before entering and tests on return to England

The French government have removed the need for a negative covid test to enter France on the basis that you have had both vaccines and sign a form to confirm you have no symptoms. At least someone is showing some common sense.

That's interesting. Where did you read that as the Gov website and eurotunnel site still say you need the 72hr PCR or 48hr Antigen test even if fully vaccinated? Hope it's true as will save a bit more money that will dilute the extortionate bait costs

Would love interested if you could post a link to that information Richard . I hope your right , but think you might be getting confused with a “ Green “ rated country . The U.K. is currently rated “ Amber “ by the French and requires a negative PCR or Antigen before entry ..

The french government haven't removed that need it is still required. What they have removed is the requirement for an
'essential reason' to travel. it is still necessary to have had two jabs and a negative pcr test within 72 hours or a negative antigen test within 48 hours of travel. see:- https://www.connexionfrance.com/French-news/Covid-19-Rules-for-travel-to-and-from-France. note also the curfew has been completely lifted from today.

You are wrong, I live iYou are wrong, the need for a negative test has been removed, as stated. Take a look at the French government Website.
But what do I know, I only live in France!

I would absolutely bow to your superior knowledge Richard as you live in France and are far more informed than us that don't. I have checked several sites but can't see any mention of the test being no longer required just that ' From 9 June, fully vaccinated people from EU or Schengen Associated Countries will not be subject to testing or isolation requirements'. Can you possibly point us in the right direction with a link? As i stated before it would be great news practically and financially if you are correct
.

You are right and I am mistaken. I assumed incorrectly that the connexion would be up to date on this. By the way, I also live in france.

It dos state on the site rich that you gave to have a negative test if arriving from a orange country so in my eyes we still have to have a pcr negative test
