Travel ban imposed on Britain
More than 50 countries imposed travel restrictions for people coming from Britain over fear of the spread of a new mutation of the coronavirus, which is supposed to be more contagious. Since then, a new lockdown was also imposed for the southeastern part of Britain, which includes London.

The European Commission also urged member countries to lift the restrictions and allow essential travel with Britain.
