Meanwhile, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has rejected calls by interior minister Priti Patel for a temporary closure of borders, the newspaper reported, adding that Patel had pushed for a travel ban to stop potentially vaccine-resistant strains of coronavirus being imported into the country.
Johnson has said he was looking at the option of introducing quarantine hotels for those coming to Britain to prevent the risk of “vaccine-busting” new coronavirus variants entering the country.
