Cyprus and Lithuania have been added to the UK's coronavirus quarantine list

Fines for people not self-isolating when returning from affected countries begin at £1,000 and can increase to £10,000 ifA recent survey found that the infection rate among people who travelled abroad within the last 30 days was around the same as the infection rate for people who remained in the UK, according to the Office for National Statistics.

Public Health England told Sky News in September the risk assessment for each country is considered on an individual basis. The weekly infection rate is weighted against the trends in incidence and deaths, prevalence, and information on a country's testing capacity. The positive test rate, which is the proportion of tests with a positive result, is also used to help understand the severity of the pandemic in each country.
