Spain escapes UK’s travel red list as Beta variant fails to take hold


Hundreds of thousands of Britons are in Spain and millions more are expected this yearSpain will not be placed on the travel red list, because of a significant fall in cases and concerns that there are not enough hotel rooms to quarantine holidaymakers returning to England. Ministers will announce tomorrow that Spain will remain on the amber list, enabling those who are fully vaccinated to continue to enjoy a quarantine-free return. SponsoredThe ten-day quarantine for fully vaccinated holidaymakers returning from France will be removed. The country was put on an “amber-plus” list last month in response to concerns about the Beta variant, which ministers believe may be more resistant to vaccines, leading to a diplomatic backlash and a cabinet split. However, 0.4 per cent of cases in France are now attributed to the Beta variant.
