Prime Minister Boris Johnson quickly U-turned on using a little-known scheme for himself and Chancellor Rishi Sunak to avoid coronavirus quarantine after widespread outrage over the apparent double standards.
Mr Johnson had initially said that he and the Chancellor would not quarantine after they were “pinged” by the country’s track-and-trace system after the fully vaccinated Health Secretary Sajid Javid tested positive for COVID-19.
The Prime Minister said that rather than quarantining, they would instead take advantage of a scheme that would allow them to take daily tests for the Chinese virus as an alternative.
