A quarantine waiver for EU and US travellers and a cover-up in social care lead the front pages.
Several of the papers report that ministers plan to allow fully vaccinated travellers from the EU and US to avoid quarantine. The Times says the rule change is planned for England after Prime Minister Boris Johnson became concerned the EU is ahead of Britain in reopening to international travel.Covering the same story, the Guardian says it would mean people vaccinated in the US and EU would be able to travel from amber list countries to the UK without quarantining, as UK citizens can.
The Daily Express features a more sober - but still hopeful - prognosis from key government pandemic adviser Prof Neil Ferguson, who suggests the "bulk of the pandemic" will be behind us by October. The paper renames the man formerly known as Professor Lockdown as "Professor Upbeat" in the light of his new assessment.
