Our approach has always been guided by scientific and medical advice. The restrictions that apply at each tier will be reviewed every 28 days to ensure they remain necessary and proportionate.</p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 11/01/2021 12:34:54 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/06/2020 answer text <p>On 8 June new rules for international travellers were introduced in order to reduce the risk of new cases from abroad.</p><p>Before considering whether antibody testing could ever be used to lessen or exempt specific individuals from self-isolation measures, we first need to improve our understanding of how the immune system responds to COVID-19.</p><p>COVID-19 is a new disease and the science around ‘immunity’ to the virus remains uncertain. There is no strong evidence yet to suggest that those who have been proven to have had the virus are immune. We do not know, for example, how long an antibody response to the virus lasts nor whether having antibodies means one does not transmit the virus to others.</p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 23/06/2020 10:09:39 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries previous answer version 29534 answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries
