France indicated today that it would follow what Germany and Austria have already in place and require quarantine for those who arrive from the UK.
Although the Covid-19 cases have plummeted in the UK lately, the most recent trend is slightly upwards due to more virulent Indian mutation making rounds.
It is not clear how long the quarantine would last and if you can shorten it by taking a Covid-19 test after few days. Germany only allows its citizens and permanent residents to arrive from the UK and require them to self-quarantine for two weeks. Austria has similar requirements in place.
UK Covid-19 cases:
The situation is very good in the UK, although the spread of the Indian mutant is worrisome.
Conclusion
The European Union was supposed to release early this week a list of countries from which visitors would be welcomed to the bloc this summer, but apparently, this has been delayed as no information has been released.
The situation in the UK is much better when it comes to vaccination and the current Covid-19 positive rates compared to all these three countries.

France should have been red listed but for whatever reason the UK amber listed it and to thank us we got this in return.
Lol, does “UK variant” ring a bell with you? Do you want European countries to get your new Indian variant that you’ve neglected for a long time?
If it was not for English Politicians utter incompetence, Europe would not have faced the 2nd wave.
England should have been blacklisted by all countries as soon as the UK variant was first detected.
A little bit of revenge politics perhaps. But who can blame Europe. If the UK was not such a bunch of racist, colonial, isolationist, better than thou, nasty people, we would not be so unpopular and out in the cold
It’s backwards narrow minded attitudes like yours that make up issues that don’t exist. We are more cosmopolitan than EVERY country in Europe, and far more integrated than every other European Country. You obviously don’t get out much in Europe. I have been everywhere. So don’t be a child! Go to any City in the UK, especially England and you will see a mix of colours. No one cares. 80% of other Capitals, all white lol. Don’t talk nonsense. Nasty horrible leftard. Yawn
I am really sorry to have upset you so much Nigel and keeping you up late was very remiss of me, yawn
Clearly you don’t have either an ego problem or a greatly inflated view of yourself. Of course you have been everywhere. How could anyone doubt a claim like that. It really isn’t a ridiculously dillusional piece of nonsense.
Tell me, in your extensive travels, how did you find it in The Twilight Zone?
Were there any entry restrictions for Fantasy Land?
I’ll bet you had your lovely British passport stamped when you entered Narnia!
Anyway, do keep in touch, always a pleasure chatting with someone so well balanced and rational ( what colour is the sun on your present planet of residence, do tell).
Love the use of BIG BIG letters, sort of gets your point over so much better, especially for those who have been absolutely everywhere.
Ciao Nig old chap
Silly
Travel will not get back to normal unless countries stop using COVID for political reasons or continued fear mongering. Forcing vaccinated people or those that produce negative tests to quarantine is absolutely decimating economies.
Countries need to step the hell up and get their citizens vaccinated and stop closing their borders as the solution to stem the virus. Countries are saying keep those tourist out to stop the spread of the virus rather than saying we’re going to spend and invest what it takes to vaccinate our citizens and allow travel to get back to normal
