France could go on travel red list over fears 'vaccine-resistant' South Africa variant might 'reseed' infections in UK
FRANCE could go on the travel red list over fears the "vaccine-resistant" South African variant might "reseed" infections in the UK.
"They are worried about the South African variant because they think it escapes the vaccine, although they don't have evidence of that yet," a senior Whitehall source said. It is believed that the Prime Minister is reluctant to place France on the red travel list after how it impacted trade and supply chains back in March when the UK was put into a similar situation.The analysis was conducted by the Joint Biosecurity Centre after it, along with the Department for Health, was asked to "interrogate" the data coming out of France.Officials are said to be alarmed with the number of cases of the beta variant in the country.
The French President said that all healthcare and retirement home staff would need to get jabbed by September 15 as he unveiled a string of measures to curb the spread.
