After industry organizations called for remaining limits and tests to be lifted, ministers are finalizing revisions to the trip Covid testing requirements. According to Star TV, the government may eliminate the requirement for people to take a test two days before coming in the UK. Airlines have claimed that passenger testing is having little real impact, despite data released last week indicating that one in every 25 individuals in England has the virus. Compulsory testing, they claim, has slowed the sector's recovery. It comes as the prime minister prepares to meet with his cabinet to persuade them to support his decision not to impose any more Covid limits in the UK. According to Star Tv, the government is considering removing the recommendation that persons who test positive on a lateral flow device should seek a confirmatory PCR test.

For the rest of the week, the status of instruction remained uncertain. The union's action, which received 73 percent of members' approval, called for remote instruction until "cases considerably subside" or union executives establish an agreement with the district on safety protocols. In a statement, the union added, "This decision was made with a heavy and sole focus on student and community safety."
