"The people that are leaving Afghanistan to this country are they being tested for covid and have they been vaccinated. "

That's an extremely offensive question, do you really need to ask it.

Huge numberd of people are being executed in Afghanistan by the Taliban and you are worried about Covid testing/vaccine.

They are going straight into quarantine and not allowed out for that period.

I would be surprised if any of them will be in a hurry to go roaming the streets anytime soon

More to the point, have they been screened to check whether or not they have terrorist connections ?

"More to the point, have they been screened to check whether or not they have terrorist connections ?"

I think that was the point of securing the airport and why they are not just moving them all out on the same day.

They are checking docs and whether they worked for the allied forces.

Easy to ask when you are not in their situation

Families torn apart public flogging torture

With the chaotic scenes at the airport of crowds of people there four or five days with little food and water, people getting crushed to death, do you think it would be possible to organise covid testing ?

Just a thought

could the sudden pullout of Afghanistan be a consequence of covid and the logistics of administering double jab vaccines plus boosters to a nation that has been ripped apart and has no identification of its citizens.

Or the ill thought out consequence of a "peace deal" in Doha; the release of over 6k insurgency prisoners and the inexorable rise of a terrorist organisation that's tried to make a legitimate political face in recent years?

Lots of fake news even on the BBC.

They used footage from an american football stadium and pretended to be from an airport in Afghanistan.

Why? They want countries like our to accept more foreigners. Why? So that they can destabilise the host nation. Why? So that governments can legitimately stay in power and dish out more control.

Due to the fact the Kabul mission is classed as a war footing civil law requirements will be overlooked where impractical. Once landed in the U.K. civil law will once more apply, eg: quarantine and testing.

It’s a red country, they are getting tested was on local news , one flight into Birmingham they have been in the airport for nearly 24 hours , waiting for tests etc , when I say in the airport I don’t mean walking around boots and costa , held up waiting checks etc before being put into a quarantine hotel

I am not sure if you are correct with regards to what you said about the BBC. Maybe they used the footage you claimed I can not tell you they have not.

But if they have, I think you are wrong to say that they pretended to be from an airport in Afghanistan. By maintaining this view, you are giving explanations (akin to widely circulated conspiracy theories) to three of your questions.

I became very curious with what you said. How could be a footage from an American football stadium to be used for the pretense of being from an airport in Afghanistan? This comparison sounded bat crazy to me.

So I did a quick fact check. The video was originally posted a couple of years ago and it is indeed from a football stadium. At some point later someone made a claim that the footage was from Kabul airport and the footage started circulating more through social media.

IF BBC really used this footage, they probably believed that it was indeed from Kabul airport and they did not pretend.

It seems that someone from ABC also got duped to use the same footage.

Therefore, if this really happened, it seems that it was a genuine cock up and not something deliberate to create a falsehood in order to control people’s minds.

Factcheck from Reurers regarding that video

Not too worried. There is a risk of one or two. But generally knowing Kabul, its people and the groups were transporting its low. When you factor home grown radicalisation and radicalised people via other channels I say on the grand scale its almost negligible. Now obviously we don't want any but then when you factor this tiny risk against the very real risk to life of 10,000s (many of who have been working with us to combat extremists and the taliban) its a no brainer. It is the right thing to do.

I think its sad to read and here what these refugees have to go through without us ridiculing them for wanting a safer life for themselves and their children.

I live close to Brize Norton and have seen the planes coming in to the airport there but they are not staying on base longer than they need to and I think we should be thinking about giving our support and offering care packages of simple things like soap etc to help them integrate into our society rather than alienating them

To be honest, the ABC should have fact checked it before using it. The BBC should have fact checked it before using it.

But you should also have fact checked it before believing it and using it here. Shows that you can also be easily duped with dubious info if such info fits in your beliefs. Whoever made that falsehood, managed to control your mind. Mission complete.

Essentially, it was a 3 way cock up.

They have to have room service when quarantining from red list countries! The whole point is they're only supposed to go outside, supervised, for a brief period and shouldn't mix with other families. Exactly the same for anyone else returning from a red country. They will NOT be choosing from the room service menu - it will be the "Serco special slop" that is specifically provided for the quarantinees.

Indeed and they will NOT be paying £450 a night per person. I'm interested to know where this hotel is, because even The Wellesley in Knightsbridge is "only" £388 a night and that's five stars with butler service as an option.

Yes they have to quarantine but no they are not being tested because it is literally a matter of life-and-death.

"The people that are leaving Afghanistan to this country are they being tested for covid and have they been vaccinated.

That's an extremely offensive question, do you really need to ask it.

Huge numberd of people are being executed in Afghanistan by the Taliban and you are worried about Covid testing/vaccine.

Apparently those arriving for the quarantine in the UK are being tested on day 2, etc, the same as other red list countries but of course, there isn't likely to be pre departure testing for obvious reasons.
