British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and French President Emmanuel Macron have agreed there should be no quarantine measures for travellers arriving in Britain from France for now, according to AFP.

In telephone talks, the two leaders vowed to work together to prevent the risk of cross-border contamination as Covid-19 infections finally begin to fall, the Elysee said.

“No quarantine measure will apply to travellers from France at this stage; any measure from one side or the other will be taken in a coordinated and reciprocal way,” the Elysee said.
