Covid: ‘Our 10 days of hotel quarantine are finally over’

Date:

UK residents arriving in England from so-called “red list” countries need to self-isolate in hotels for 10 days as part of Covid rules; all other arrivals are banned.

So what does the experience feel like? Wiehann Meyer travelled from South Africa to London with a friend to start a job on the first day the policy came in – he’s just finished his quarantine and he kept this video diary for us, to show people what it’s like.
