Why cases in managed isolation
Posted on 10-03-2021 13:32 | By Poppie
But hang on, why do we have positive cases in managed isolation? Do passengers not have to show a negative test before departing from wherever? So how and where do they get the virus then?

Only if they come from UK and US. The Government is not seemingly concerned about the very scary Brazilian variant that apparently the vaccine is less effective against. I’m sure they’ll get round to it, probably after another Community outbreak with a Brazilian twist to it. Inept.
