There have been reports in The Telegraph, that the U.K. government has become increasingly impatient with the Biden Administration because it has not named a precise date for reopening. There are suggestions that there would be a delay on the November date because the issue is reasonably complicated, as sign off needs to come from all the government areas involved–The White House, Department of Transport, State Department and National Institute of Health.
Het VK is blijkbaar een beetje boos op de VS...
U.K. Travel Minister Grant Shapps told Times Radio about the inherent problems for the U.S. in its reopening. "It's not that they don't want to do it. It's actually that in many ways they don't have the kind of level of sophistication in place on international travel that has become normal to us. For example, they don't actually have a Covid certification like the NHS app, it's a piece of paper. So you might say well, why does that matter to Brits going over there? Well again, they just don't have a system set up to read the NHS barcode or to be able to recognise other people's tests."
Leuk eufemisme: "they don't have the kind of level of sophistication". Met andere woorden, "ze zijn een achtergebleven gebied".
