Remove requirement for ‘Day 2 Test’ after travel for fully vaccinated passengers

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Whole flights of passengers are being unnecessarily ‘pinged’ because someone on their flight has tested positive for COVID after arriving in the UK, is this necessary when a mandatory test is already taken before the flight?

Fully vaccinated passengers on flights are far less likely to catch and spread COVID, therefore they should be exempt from isolation if someone on their plane tests positive.
