Extraordinary that Spain wants to continue excluding the 30% of UK over 12s who are now classed as unvaccinated, when almost every other country in Europe allows entry with a negative test. I can only assume it is for political reasons as there is surely no justifiable purpose related to Covid.

But the 12 - 17 age group can enter Spain with a negative test. It’s been that way since February this year.

Which makes no difference at all to the number of people effectively barred from entry because hardly any in that age group will be travelling independently.

It’s not Spains fault that the U.K. fell so far behind with the vaccine programme for that age group, so the rule was put in place so that families could travel.
The last published figures show that 78% of the U.K. are fully vaccinated. Add on to that people who had had covid in the last 180 days. All those people meet the entry requirements for Spain.

That still leaves 20% of the UK population, approx. 12 million people, banned from entering Spain. Why? Everyone must surely know by now from personal experience that vaccination has no effect on the likelihood of catching or passing on Covid. Almost all other European countries, even France, now accepts entry with a negative test. They have even stopped the mask-wearing mania in Spain - why persist with this travel restriction?

may I just point out that some people are unable to be vaccinated due to underlying health problems.

Everyone should have a free choice or whether to be vaccinated or not, without fear of prejudice or discrimination. It's basic medical ethics. This has been completely ignored by politicians and clinicians around the world for the last two years.
