Petition Action

End the 2nd and 8th day Covid tests after travelling

Petition Details

Just have the PCR before travelling

Additional Information

When you arrive to the UK after travelling, you already have to have a negative covid test from wherever you came from and must then have a 10 day isolation period. Therefore the extra Covid tests are a waste of time, money and resources all of which could be used elsewhere.
