The UK had insisted on keeping SA on its travel red list apparently due to inaccurate information received from a rogue scientist based in the country.
It was on this basis that the UK has now revised its decision and will remove SA from its red list.
“The measures announced ... mark the next step as we continue to open up travel ... and provide stability for passengers ... while remaining on track to keep travel open for good.” This was said to be unnecessary as Covid-19 cases in SA had dropped significantly resulting in the country moving to a reduced lockdown level 1. The country has also fully vaccinated more than 7-million people.
