Friday's Travel Task Force report was (again) bit vague and anti-climatic but still fairly positive.

It sill looks as though travel will reopen on May 17th and this means
- No Travel Ban, everyone is free to leave to anywhere
-
as outlined in the report applies on the return to the UK
If you are okay with home isolation and testing then you'll have a lot of choices.

At biggest risk at the moment of being added to the
list are:
Turkey
India
Both have huge outbreaks at the moment and if there's any extra concern over 'variants' then they could be added.. not a certainly , but it's a big risk right now.

For Ireland restrictions remain
- Test before travel to Ireland
- Passenger Locator Form
- Hotel Quarantine for growing list of arrivals
- Isolation for all other arrivals.
The future outlook for travel to/from Ireland is much bleaker than the UK unfortunately

Let's hope travel opens up soon, get vaccinated when you can to help this.
Remember it's not only holidays.
Data from @OurWorldInData converted by me into the
ECDC format used for European travel decisions.

Vaccine Data is total
administered per 100 population.
The bars displayed are full at 100 so could mean everyone with one
, or 50% all had 
( or something in between)
It's a bit limited but is the metric that is available for most countries so makes sense to use

Obviously there's issues with figures as vaccines are only used in adults and there will increasingly be more single
