After criticism for the recent travel advisory that prescribed 10 days quarantine for fully vaccinated Indians, the UK's new advisory has accommodated SII's Covishield as an approved Covid-19 vaccine, however, double-vaccinated Indians still have to quarantine because of "vaccination certification issues", according to UK officials. The Indian and the UK government are in talks to resolve the issue.
