In news just in: The Telegraph reports that South Africa will be removed from the UK Covid-19 red list.

News 24 reports the UK newspaper said that Britain will abolish quarantine for almost all countries, including South Africa.

The UK’s current red list of 54 countries will be slashed to as few as nine.

The changes, that are expected to be announced on Thursday, will allow UK residents to visit those countries without having to self-isolate on their return.

South Africa, Brazil and Mexico are expected to be opened up to quarantine-free travel in time for the October half-term break.
