Until yesterday I hadn’t appreciated how the UK Government measures individual countries’ infection rates in order to determine whether to impose negative travel advice. Apologies if I’m preaching to those who know already.
They use a 7-day rolling infection rate per 100,000 of population and any country hitting a figure of 20 is considered at risk. In the last two days the rates for the UK and Spain have been 11/12 and 103/104 respectively. Gibraltar has the highest rate in Europe today at 139.
