British tourists will be admitted to Spain only if they can show proof of a Covid-19 vaccination

.Until now, people from the UK were admitted to Spain if they could show proof they had been fully vaccinated against coronavirus or a negative PCR test result taken up to 72 hours before arriving.All non-EU arrivals in mainland France, where the Omicron variant has yet to be detected, will also have to show proof of a negative Covid-19 test regardless of their vaccination status.

Previously they were only required to take a cheaper lateral flow test and did not need to self-isolate unless their test result was positive. On Thursday, regional authorities in Madrid said they had detected the country’s first case of the Omicron coronavirus variant in a vaccinated person without links to risk countries and were investigating two similar suspected cases.

On Wednesday, the northeastern region of Catalonia said it had detected potential traces of the Omicron variant in sewage samples from late November.
