Dr. Hilary Jones reminded tourists of the dangers of traveling to Spain in Lauren’s Today episode.
Spain has officially lifted the restrictions on British travelers as of today, and visitors no longer need to undergo the Covid-19 PCR test. However, tourists traveling to the country will remain in quarantine upon their return under UK rules.
In highlighting the potential risks, Dr. Hillary began: “Spain is very interested in tourism, because its economy depends on it. I get it, but they’re still on the amber list.
“You risk going to the airport, getting on the plane, even Spain says you don’t have to take a negative test before you fly, and that worries me.
What you have to remember is, are you a believer when you get there? What if I get sick when I get there? The incubation period for Covid-19 is five to seven days. If you get sick in Spain, you will be trapped there, and you will not be able to go home.
Are you insured? Is this what you want? ‘
“You know you will have to isolate yourself when you come home because they are on the amber list in the UK,” said Dr. Hillary. Then there are all sorts of problems.

Business Secretary Anne-Marie Trevelyan also urged Britons not to travel to Spain.
Speaking to Sky News, he said: “The prime minister has made it clear that, at the moment, amber means ‘please don’t go unless there is an urgent family reason, etc.’ “Because we are still trying to crawl our way. The map until we open it on June 21 and we want to do so in a continuous and accurate manner.”

“We very much hope that the amber numbers will clearly turn green in time,” she added, “but” at the moment, today, this means that the countries of amber are not really safe to go. “
On 17 May, the British Government’s travel traffic light system was introduced.

Even though countries are classified as green, amber or red, there is still some confusion about where we can travel.
