Germany to restrict entry from Britain due to the spread of COVID mutations
From December 20, Germany will consider the UK a zone of distribution of CORONAVIRUS mutations and will restrict entry, the Robert Koch Institute at the German Ministry of HEALTH said on its website.
The Institute has included the UK along with Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands in the list of areas where coronavirus variants are spread. Since December 19, the country has become a high-risk area, the publication notes.

Upon arrival, medical staff at the airport or isolation facility may perform additional tests. They will undergo a 14-day quarantine, regardless of whether they have been vaccinated or have had a coronavirus.
