I was reading about that festival outbreak earlier. I thought it was difficult to catch outdoors!!

Yeah, concerning that 4700 new cases could be linked to an outdoor festival.
Though I guess a younger demographic likely being only single jabbed at best won't have helped things.

New review tomorrow, though not expecting much movement tbh.

Current rumours include....

Jamaica, Montenegro and Morocco to go red.
Turkey, Egypt, Dom Rep and Maldives to go amber.
Poland to go green.

All should be revealed by this time tomorrow night.

The actual traffic light system is due to be formally reviewed by 1st October (apparently).
Look forward to seeing what more chaos and damage they can cause.

Sounds like you're leaving as I'm arriving.

I hear that although bars can open until the very early hours, it's still seated only policy once in venues, is this being strictly enforced do you know?

Messaged the Indie bar on Facebook and was pleased to get a reply earlier saying they are open.

Hi all, apologies if this has been covered elsewhere but we're in a flap.

We are due to fly to Portugal this week, both fully vaxxed but with one of us having 1 dose of the Z002 AZ batch (which shows Vexveria on the app, but allegedly is a Covishield batch which Portugal doesn't recognize?!)

Did anyone here with the same AZ batch vaccine get to Porto OK or has been to Portugal since the latest travel requirements? And were there any issues when out there? So much conflicting information!

Thanks
 
people who have been abroad; have you found it quit easy and straightforward to get the tests abroad and then at home? are the costs still as high as they were?
 
My grandma is going to stay with her daughter in Spain for a month from next week. Any recommendations on where to get the test from for her to come home? Do you get them over in Spain or do you get them before and take them with you?

'I went to Boardmasters and got Covid - I have no one to blame but myself'

With nearly 5,000 new cases of Covid being linked to this month's Boardmasters Festival in Cornwall, it's little surprise I came home infected, writes Richard Whitehouse

I'd imagine that they were all in very close proximity with others over a long period of time. Indoor and outdoor.

I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure Portugal now accepts the Indian one? What I will say is I doubt the Portuguese border guards are looking that closely for specific batch numbers, I've been this year and got family and colleagues over there now and they have barely glanced at the paperwork, in some cases people have just had their passport checked.

Hopefully flying out next week but waiting till tomorrows review before booking
