Coronavirus: 'Never give up, never despair', 14-day quarantine for air passengers

Here are five things you need to know about the coronavirus outbreak this Saturday morning. We'll have another update for you tomorrow.People arriving in the UK from any country apart from the Republic of Ireland

Those with depression were more likely to flout lockdown rules by meeting up with friends and leaving the house unnecessarily; while those with anxiety were more likely to practise social distancing and regularly wash their hands.The public have been warned to stay vigilant to criminals selling fake coronavirus-related products, including

Or, just test them as they get off the planes?! Seems stupid to put healthy people into quarantine! You only quarantine if you have it. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Bit fucking later. This should’ve been implemented in Jan!!!

Everybody arriving should of been sticking to the rules of the uk and abiding by the restrictions as restrictions then get lifted the cross over from people coming to the country will increase meaning a measure has to be put in place... how do ppl not understand this...

From midApril anyone entering Canada must have written self-isolation plan (mostly returning Canadians) If not, the Province will quarantine them for 14 days. Hard to understand with UKs high numbers that they failed to have these safeguards in place months ago. Yay 🇨🇦

Where’s all the fuckin horses Dominic ? We followed scientific advice and I want to be clear Boris, this is why we have always done the right thing at the right time. The horses bolted 6 weeks ago, I want to pay tribute to the member of Sage who has just closed the stable gate.

Can’t believe this. Unbelievable !! WTF is going on in the UK? What a shambles ! What’s the point of everyone being in lockdown, when people could just fly in and carry on. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Australia lockdown in Feb and quarantine for all who arrive from early March. So sad....

Closed the stable door after the horse has bolted....TOO LATE!!!!

Why are they only just bothering now to do this? This should have been done from day 1 of lockdown! 🙄

NO TRAVEL FOR ME

Very sensible but how can this possibly be enforced. Not a chance.

Too late, Pakistan has done this since March and this could be one of the reasons for the low numbers of infection in the country.

Quarantine on the way into England is like wiping your feet before walking into a muddy field.

Oh look the horse has bolted 😂😂😤😤😤🤣🤣🤣

This should have been in place at the start of lockdown; what’s the point of it starting at the end of this month!

We aren't event doing it now , we are doing it at the end of the month

In 20 days, not now. Today 320 flights arriving to UK airports and 320 flights departing. Our boarders are still open. Every one is welcome.

Wow, Johnson's shambles of a govt moving fast I see!!

About time?

What about cross-border workers? Exempt I hope?

So which employers are going to say, “yes, no worries, book a weeks’ holiday and we’ll pay you for 3” Bloody ridiculous idea that’s 3 months too late anyway.

About time after all this time reports say 10000 flighing in NO CHECKS and government say 'Save the NHS' they didn't help did they!! absolute fools not to do it sooner and why now has the science changed 🙆‍♂️ my heads spinning with their lies

Better - ridiculously - late than never eh.

Can anyone help me with 5 pounds to help someone through Paypal monkagaingmail.com i spent thousands helping people. Please

It’s a bit late for that isn’t it? Australia invoked this plan weeks ago ! And guess what they are much more in control of this virus than us and most other countries

This should be starting now and not the end of the month.

Has the Government actually announced this or has it just come from the media?

And what army will enforce that and supervise everyone?

It’s like locking the airport doors after the flying horses have landed

So if you're only on a 3 day trip it's a bit of a waste of time.

Everyone arriving has to follow the same “lockdown” advice we all do so putting people in enforced quarantine seems futile. Given the airlines are running at about an average 10% inbound load factor since lockdown (except for repatriation flights) the risk is minimal.

Only 3 months late on this one well done HMG.

If this has not been officially announced, is it just rumour at the moment? Just asking.......

Are Irish non-contageous, super human, from another planet?

I feel sorry for you if you have even a shred of faith left in our government.

Tory brainless......

People repatriated from cruise ships were quarantined. Only allowed to be repatriated if they had tested -ve. Makes no sense that untested people entering UK were not quarantined. Just one example of 10DowningStreet MattHancock incoherent & shambolic approach to Covid_19

At least 2 months too late, surely?

It’s a little too late for that don’t you think BorisJohnson 10DowningStreet This is why the UK is the second in the world to have the most number of covid-19 deaths.

I'm not convinced self isolation can be classed as genuine quarentine. Good luck with that working.

It's a perfect storm: Covid_19 contagion + a plague of 'decision makers' poised to blame their secret advisers.

This should have been in place over a month ago. 😡😡😡 BBC_HaveYourSay BBCLookEast

Our government seems to be operating in some kind of weird time delayed, fogged, hindsight littered malaise? Unfortunately for us their initial plan was never to prevent it getting here or to contain it. They're are now trying to return to GO which effectively is impossible.

BorisJohnson you absolute disgust me. WHY was this decision NOT made in February. WHY was this not implemented when Europe did the Europe wide ban. Once again we are left behind. Your as bad as Donald Trump. You have put us ALL at risk shame on you Boris Shaw on you

Talk about closing the stable door after the horse has bolted. This should've been done months ago!

Nice work Boris, but it's May now, and this might have worked in January or February... Failure

Two months too late!

Well both of these seem to be relevant to me now, stuck in another country, haven't seen anybody for 8 weeks and if I do get home I will be imprisoned for another 2 weeks. I give up I cannot take this any more.

They haven’t even managed to stop people from having outdoor parties so I don’t believe there’s even one chance that they will manage to enforce this. Sadly just another “should” that will be ignored..

Everyone: This is an outrage, we should quarantine flights. Everyone: Booo, dont quarantine flights.

Horse, stable, bolt...

Sat here in New Zealand, thinking WHAT!! People are not going into quarantine already when landing in the UK?

There will be lots of people who will ignore the quarantine just like those who ignore the social distancing rules.

Oh well that will be end of the travel industry for sure if it isnt all ready finished

Too late !!

Dropped the ball on a lot of issues ,,,, only now they wake up ,,, very sad

The Government denies being slow on the lockdown, slow on track and trace and slow on PPE, but the introduction of controls at airports SEVEN weeks into the lockdown just shows why you cannot trust BorisJohnson with Covid19, stable doors and horses. piersmorgan NicolaSturgeon

And just how will this be enforced exactly? It won't be as it's impossible to. It will just rely on those to adhere to recommendations.

That's the sound of a stable door being shut but the horse is long gone...

The end of the month?!?!? Is our government insane!!?! This should have been in place since the beginning. Our government is sleeping while it’s people are dying.

Wow finally!

It's not a quarantine. People will be 'ASKED TO QUARANTINE'. Absolute waste of time.

Who will police the people though ? Plenty happy to break lockdown so can't see that working unless they are tagged

Why not till the end of June? Why not far earlier? Why does our government not look at the countries that have successfully implemented strategies that are actually working. The wearing of face masks is another why not, which seems to work in other countries. I despair!!!!!

after millions let through in Feb, March & April....unchecked...

Cannot believe this wasn’t already in place at the initial outbreak? Totally irresponsible. If it had been in place the death rate could have been reduced and these restrictions could be removed sooner rather than later.airline industry will be destroyed after this, inept!

This should have been done in FEBRUARY, many other countries saw sense back then

Three months too late! And just asking new arrivals isn’t good enough. Who’s monitoring that?

Well the BBC didn't help yesterday! Doing a report on ve day party, social distancing looks great!

Yet again far too late. This should have happened at the start. 🤦‍♀️

Still can’t believe this wasn’t mandatory before

'But they're only carrying freight Neil. ' Goodness knows how many virus cases we've imported or exported in the last two months. Profits before people. Inept government.

Dear Studio. When smoking was taken out of aeroplanes the amount of oxygen put into plane was reduced, air was recycled, costs reduced. Will airlines be re-establishing fresh air to reduce re-circulated air and viruses?

Bit late, as lock Down regs relax , inbound air passengers get quarantined?

Ridiculous how much will that cost the economy? As testing gets quicker just set up test labs at airports at point of departure. Clean plane clean crew and passengers. No quarantine at destination. Same on return.

Great idea 🤦‍♂️

bought time,but what about the illegals invading our Nation every day patel4witham BorisJohnson that should be a priority to turn the bastardo's back or on a plane back within 24hrs

Are they going to quarantine them in the empty nightingale hospitals?

Why on earth is anyone travelling to the UK, the hotbed for virus transmission with the worst record on managing it in the world?

Bit late, no?

मुंबई ने रोज़गार दिया,मुंबई ने मान सम्मान दिया।मुंबई में मेरा बच्चा हुआ।मुंबई ने इस लायक़ किया की गाँव में घर बना सकूँ।मुंबई ने मुझे अच्छे सेअच्छी स्वास्थ्य सुविधाएँ दी। मुंबई में ही सभी त्योहार आज तक मनायें।मुंबई ने मेरा साथ निभाया,मैं मुंबई क्यूँ छोडूं? घर पर रहे सुरक्षित रहे।

Correction. Five things your editorial board asserts that I need to know. I beg to differ. Further correction. What was I thinking? Since when do I beg to differ? I assert that you've not a clue as to what I need, so you can take your assertions and stick them up your...

What about those passengers landing in rubber dinghies?

Since when? I landed in the UK 5 days ago... no mention of anything. I think there was a flyer up though

Unbelievable 😡😡 should have been happening weeks ago ffs planes should be grounded now 😡

Dither and delay from the government

Always late off the mark, this should have been done back in Feb/March

Wait. The UK is only doing this now? No wonder your infection and death rate is so high. Responsible countries did this 2 MONTHS ago.

Horse stable bolted

Better late than never? No doubt the BBC will rip the Government a new one for waiting so long to do so. The Science must of changed right? Bull.

Still don’t understand why international travel was still allowed? We can’t drive to a park to walk so why allow planes in?!

Love the way our government are so incompetent they make that idiot Trump look like the stable genius he claims to be.

Well, well well,,, no wonder you have high numbers of covid-19.. but I guess you need reinforcements if population is dying.. and you have to replace them for prosperity...and I guess you trust them to lock for 14days.. why do you think China welds the door locks.. they won't!

Shutting the stable door 3 months late...

UK government has been sleeping for 4 months? If they followed common sense rather than their controversial scientific advice, then this quarantine should have been in place since early February ! COVID19

Bit late now!! 🙈🙈🙈

Oh great the BBC charges me for crap Dr who and now inflicts buzzwords on us too

Why now?

Seriously?

Is there any point now
