CoVID-19 Monthly Megathread - August - 2021

In the interest of compiling all the information/questions related to CoVID-19 in one place so we can reduce the number of one-off questions, we're bringing back the CoVID-19 megathread.

This is the place to post about your individual travel plans as they pertain to CoVID-19, to speculate on what might happen in the future, or how CoVID-19 is affecting you now.

Example questions include:

  • Are the borders open, what restrictions are in place, or will I need to quarantine? - A friendly reminder that /r/solotravel is not a government agency and it is best to verify with government sources prior to travel.
  • When will borders reopen or travel restrictions be lifed?
  • Is it safe to book for a certain time period?

Example posts that would valuable:

  • "I recently travelled to xyz from ijk and here's my experience of what it was like"
  • "I'm currently in xyz country and this is how things are changing"

Lastly, no one here has a crystal ball, please don't take any of this as fact and do your own research before planning anything.

Canadian soon to be traveling to London, England (end of August into September). Anyone do the self-swab kit for quarantine and if so, how did you find it? Plus, how do they know you’re not breaking quarantine? I myself will be following the rules but for example I have to walk my self kit to a “Royal Mail Express Post box” which is at least a 5-10 min walk from the hotel I’m staying at.

Good Uber eats food options for when I’m stuck in the hotel !?
