Isolating and testing is the only real solution, no? The lorry drivers are able to sleep in their cabs, so they are able to avoid too much close contact, as well as being away from the general population. Horrible situation to be in and my heart goes out to them, but letting them into France and on to the rest of Europe doesn't seem so smart (if this strain is as contagious as reported).

It’s been around since September at least. Closing the border for two days seems a little futile.
@Acliff yeah but 2 days. Fair enough if they test everyone on return maybe the two days allows them to put that in place but I’m doubtful

Closing the border, leaving those stranded in the region where the strain is most dominant for two days seems counter productive.
