Making it difficult for people so as "to deter undesirables"

Doctor Who, Call the Midwife and Mrs Brown's Boys are among the shows that will be in this year's Christmas TV schedule, the BBC has revealed.
It has been "a real struggle" to make the usual range of festive shows during Covid, the BBC's Charlotte Moore said.
But, she added, the stars and crews "pulled out all the stops".
I wish they hadn't !!!

Travellers who arrive in England from high-risk countries will soon be able to reduce their quarantine period by more than half if they pay for a Covid test after five days - and of course, if that test is negative.
The new system will begin on 15 December and will cost between £65 and £120 per person.
The travel industry welcomed the policy but described it as long overdue. The transport secretary said it would allow people to see loved ones and give a boost to business

It won't be 100% safe though as the vaccines ae not 100% effective for all though

Of course. That's not the argument though.

How good are these private tests (like Boots etc) for £120?
Parents quite high risk but want to spend Christmas with them knowing we're ok as much as possible, so thinking of paying for private test nearer the time.

The NHS tests are free if you have symptoms......

How does this new, proposed 5 day quarantine/taking a test work in practice? Do you take a test on entry at the airport or would you have to go and get one once you arrive etc.?
Once you have the negative result is the quarantine period ended from that point, so if you have a negative test result back after only 2 days you are then free to move about?
I'm trying to figure out if I can come home for Christmas without having to spend the whole visit stuck inside the house!

You sure about that? You've paid for it anyway....

It seems you arrive, go into quarantine, take the test after day 5, get the result, if negative you are free to leave quarantine. So quarantine becomes a 6 day minimum rather than 14 day.
Under the new travel rules, passengers who arrive from a foreign destination not on the government's travel corridors list will still need to enter self-isolation.
However, if they pay for a test after five days and it comes back negative, they will no longer need to self-isolate.
Results will normally be issued in 24 to 48 hours. This means people could be released from quarantine six days after arrival.

It's not clear how you actually get to take that test after 5 days but who needs detail.

608 deaths.
So when's this Lockdown meant to be taking effect? Because the death rate still increasing.

Cheers.
Bugger though, means I'd have to spend virtually the whole week at home.
Deaths tend to lag behind. Think it’s about two weeks.
Cases are down today. So hopefully see a fall in deaths soon.

We're kind of numb to it now. But it's a lot of people dying. Presumably, they are predominantly over 80? The sooner they can get the vaccines out to the higher risk groups the better.

Yeah, we have been numbed to it. It’s equivalent to 3 or 4 domestic jets full of passengers dropping out of U.K. skies each day.
