For anyone heading to UK I can recommend the testing centre by the Town Hall.
A funny sensation with the stick being stuck up your nose but over before you know it
Results within the hour  and only €20

They said it will be every 3 weeks now so you can plan your holidays better without scrambling back at short notice. Next update is the 26th August.

Excuse my bum info - no one told me they had changed it, but it makes sense. Many locals are saying that once August is over and the internal tourists have all gone, they will clamp down again. I await the 26th of August with interest.

Boosters already starting here and there...  US' CDC now suggesting booster 8 months after second vaccine dose.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/18/covid-booster-shots-us-to-begin-wide-distribution-of-third-vaccine-doses-next-month.html

Israel has begun and I recall hearing of a couple of EU countries (Germany, France??) which have started or will soon.

Let's hope the third poke lasts longer than 8 months!  Jeez, don't want 2022 to be lost!!  I've got my trip booked!!  :D

Grant Shaps said the next government update will be either 25 or 26th August so people could book with some confidence.
