Delegates at the G7 economic and political conference being held in London are reported to be self-isolating after a 'Covid scare'.
Vaccines minister Nadhim Zahawi has said he was unaware of reports of G7 delegates self-isolating following a Covid scare.
When asked on Sky News whether he knew how many were self-isolating, he said: “I don’t I’m afraid, but obviously Public Health England and the team that are organising G7 take this very seriously.
“We continue to have one of the most robust set of protocols around testing and so we will make sure that happens, but I don’t know the numbers.”
He added: “This is news to me … I can’t really comment.”
There are reported to be two Covid cases among delegates from India.
