What if western countries had gone all out with an attempt to eliminate SARS-CoV-2 in the same way that they did in 2003 with its close relation SARS-CoV-1, rather than telling themselves it wasn't really serious? Because the latter strategy hasn't worked that well has it? Which countries said it wasn't serious Roger? Edit - Forgot Trump!

snowman Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 https://www.gov.im/news/2022/jan/10/change-to-covid-19-testing-for-international-arrivals/ From 00:01 on Tuesday 11 January 2022 any arriving international travellers, who are fully vaccinated and eligible for entry to the Isle of Man, will no longer have to have a PCR test after arrival. Instead, international travellers will be required to take a lateral flow test within 12 hours of arrival and avoid public indoor spaces until the test is taken and the result submitted online. This change reflects the simplified rules for international arrivals into England, announced this week by the UK Government, which will end the requirement for pre-departure tests and self-isolation for fully vaccinated travellers. International arrivals to the Island must complete a landing form and sign a declaration that they will take a lateral flow test within 12 hours of arrival, and avoid public indoor settings until a negative result is received and submitted online. This will mean that the entry requirements for fully vaccinated international travellers and travellers within the Common Travel Area (CTA) will be the same, making border arrangements simpler whilst continuing to screen arrivals for COVID-19. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other problem being where to do a PCR tests when the Grandstand and the Airport cannot be used ! What on earth happened to over £300 hundred thousand of public money which was used to provide proper facilities has disappeared failicities to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is looking likely that vaxes will reduce, as will PCR testing, so perhaps re-route the vax exit to back out the front door, keeping the back area and door for PCR, or vice versa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
