Dr Hilary warns Brits not to travel abroad despite govt plans for air bridges
BRITS should avoid travelling abroad this year despite government plans to form quarantine-free 'air bridges' with other countries, Dr Hilary Jones has warned.
"It's how it spread from China to Italy, to Germany, to Iran, through air travel particularly, and we're thinking of opening up all these air bridges." He continued: "A lot of people are saying 'we're not gonna do that, we wouldn't fly just now' because you can't socially distance on an aeroplane."His advice follows similar warnings from the Irish government, who claim luxury holidays abroad should still be avoided.
A traffic light system is being proposed, with red deeming the country high risk while green deems them low risk - France, Spain and Greece are considered to be the most likely to be part of the air bridge agreement.has warned it will take time for these to come into place, despite suggestions they would be introduced this week.
