That's fair - I meant that we'd started closing our border to China. Apparently Australia blocked tourists from China from February 1 and required other travellers from China to go into quarantine. I'm still trying to find when the UK implemented the same restrictions on China that Australia did. Apologies for a Daily Mail link, but it suggests that a week later the UK was still struggling to implement restrictions on travel from China due to EU rules [1] (but then, the Daily Mail would say that). Deutsche Welle suggests that a Europe-wide ban didn't happen until 17th March, and even then the Schengen still remained open [2]. As for the F1 GP, I'll just paraphrase our WA Premier: "They do things differently on the east coast" ;) [1] https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-7968785/UK-ban-flights-China-block-foreign-citizens-entering.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-7968785/UK-ban-fl...
