With lockdown continuing to ease, temperatures rising, and the school holidays upon us, many of us are thinking about getting away this summer.
In addition, from July 19 children and anyone who's had two doses of a coronavirus vaccine will not need to self-isolate when they return from an amber list country, making a trip abroad more realistic for millions of us.
But since vaccinated people can still catch Covid-19, the question remains: what happens if you test positive while you're on holiday?

The rules are different depending on what country you're in, so we thought we'd gather all the advice in one place.
What should I do if I test positive for coronavirus while abroad?
If you test positive for Covid-19 while you're abroad, the UK government says you should follow local rules and guidance.
"You may need to seek treatment where you are, and stay until you have recovered," the Foreign Office says. "If local authorities tell you to quarantine, you should expect to do that where you are."
Specific country-by-country advice, including how to access healthcare, is available on the Foreign Office website.
Your travel insurance may or may not cover the cost of your treatment, depending on the advice for the country you're in. Contact your insurance company if you have any doubts.
Regardless of your insurance situation or destination, it's always advisable to carry an EHIC, or its replacement, a GHIC (global health insurance card). These are not a replacement for travel insurance, but in most destinations they allow you to access emergency state healthcare abroad for a reduced fee.
What happens if I test positive while holidaying in the UK?
Advice for people who test positive while on holiday in the UK is thin on the ground from the government. Thanks to East Devon District Council, however, there is some helpful advice.
Namely, if you get any symptoms of Covid-19 - a new, continuous cough, high temperature, or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste - you should self-isolate and arrange a test using your holiday address. You must also notify your accommodation provider. Anyone you're staying or travelling with must also self-isolate.
If you test negative, you can resume your holiday as normal. If you test positive, however, you must continue to self-isolate, as must your fellow travellers, and you must also notify your accommodation provider that you've tested positive.
You can travel home if you feel well enough and can do so using private transport - you should avoid public transport as you could infect others.
If you can't return home, you should talk to your accommodation provider and discuss provisions for meals and laundry. The guest will be expected to pay for their extended stay to cover their period of self-isolation - except in the case of a prior agreement or in other exceptional circumstances, such as where the accommodation provider has failed to make their accommodation Covid-secure.
If you're staying somewhere where self-isolating isn't possible, for example because of washing facilities being shared with other guests, you should return home as safely as possible, while minimising risk to others.
