UK's approval of Chinese Covid vaccines to facilitate Pakistani travellers

Britain has added China's Sinovac (SVA.O), Sinopharm and India's Covaxin to the country's approved list of vaccines for inbound travellers.

This change will facilitate Pakistani travellers.

The changes, which come into force from Nov. 22, will also benefit fully vaccinated people from countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia and India.

The travel rules are being further simplified as all people under the age of 18 will be treated as fully vaccinated at the border and will be able to enter England without self-isolating on arrival, the Department for Transport said on Monday.
