Boab Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Looks like it will be UK wide for travel regs. Hope so, no confirmation yet but if Scots have to pay for PCRs and the rest of the UK don’t, there will be a ruckus ! Btw, this is for double vaxxed folks !

At no point in my life have I ever went through a Scottish passport control, only a UK one. I just assumed, its a reserved matter. Its maybe a mute point because is within the SG, I suspect they follow Westminster.

Boab Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Easy way to sort this. Make PCR tests free for overseas travellers. If they want to keep an eye on new variants etc, fine, but you, the government, pay for it. Otherwise, people will stop listening and, frankly, just tell them to piss off !

This is the latest stupid soundbite to test the water and it may be left to Sturgeon to stand up in parliament next week and say that they have taken into account all views, blah, blah blah.... and that they will follow the rest of the UK. Once again she comes out of it clean looking like the hero (in her eyes anyway). I'm due to go away in November, and unless there is a sharp u-turn them I will be looking to fly out of Newcastle. The biggest threat from Covid for the people who live in Scotland is to stay here and go about their daily lives. A trip almost anywhere else will, for the time they are outside Scotland, considerably reduce their chances of catching Covid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the very obvious gamble of getting it over there, the tests are an added expense that seems unfair depending on where you stay. Personally, I can wait and jump on it nearer the time but I do feel for families who enjoy the October break. The industry will be seething as, even if they change it later, people would be booking now if there was a removal of testing. I think the government are on a hiding to nothing as if they change it come October, many people will have already made a decision not to go. In saying all that, a holiday is pretty far down the list of worries for many people suffering right now so it’s not a disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redjambo Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 So yes, the stats hadn't caught up yesterday as the PHS page had implied. Thought it was too good to be true. Think we're still heading in the right direction case-wise though. Who knows? It would be nice to not have to face so many data issues, especially this far down the line when the lessons should have been learnt. Scottish numbers: 18 September 2021 Summary 6,116* new cases of COVID-19 reported [+587; up from 4,298 a week ago] 73,358* new tests for COVID-19 that reported results [+13,281] 9.0% of these were positive [-0.9%] 27 new reported death(s) of people who have tested positive [-3] 99 people were in intensive care yesterday with recently confirmed COVID-19 [+12] 1,052 people were in hospital yesterday with recently confirmed COVID-19 [+15] 4,151,735 people have received their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccination and 3,802,183 have received their second dose [+1,578; +3,245] * There may be variability in the number of new cases and tests reported in the latest 24 hour period. This is due to a backlog of data being processed following technical issues affecting reporting on 16 September 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redjambo Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 The latest trend stats. All or most of that red today is due to the stop-start nature of the data in the last few days, and it's not evident that the catch-up is over yet. The positivity rate is still on the slide, the 7-day rate almost below double figures now. Deaths have increased significantly over the last few days.
