China News Service, August 14th. According to AFP report, on the 13th local time, the United Kingdom stated that it will re-implement quarantine on passengers from many places including France, the Netherlands, Monaco, etc. Starting from the 15th local time, all travelers entering the UK from the above-mentioned areas will need to implement a 14-day self-isolation.

  According to reports, the British government announced this decision after the increase in the number of new crown infections in France, which may cause a large number of British tourists to leave France on vacation. According to the epidemic data released by the French Ministry of Health on the 13th, there were 2669 new confirmed cases in a single day in France on the 13th, setting a new high in three months, and the number of new confirmed cases in a single day exceeded 2500 for two consecutive days.

  The British Transport Secretary Grant Sharps posted on social media, “Data shows that we need to remove France, the Netherlands, Monaco, Malta, the Turks and Caicos Islands, and Aruba from our new crown virus'travel corridor'. Deleted from the list to maintain a low infection rate."

  Sharps said, "If you arrive in the UK from these destinations after 4 a.m. on Saturday (15th), you will need to self-quarantine for 14 days."

  French Deputy Minister for European Affairs Clement Byrne said, "We regret the British decision and will take corresponding measures."

  The UK initially imposed a total quarantine on all tourists arriving in the country, but later implemented a "travel corridor" so that tourists from certain countries do not have to self-isolate. Last week, the UK re-isolated travelers from Andorra, Belgium and the Bahamas.
