The UK has imposed new restrictions on the country to deal with the new type of corona virus, Omecron, and has made face masks mandatory in public places across the country.

According to the Associated Press, all passengers returning to the UK on Tuesday morning will be required to undergo a PCR test and self-isolation until negative.

Previously, travelers arriving in the UK only had to undergo a literal flow test and there were no isolation restrictions.
