Over the weekend, the United Kingdom reversed plans to loosen restrictions over Christmas and announced strict lockdowns across much of the country, citing concerns about a variant of the coronavirus believed to be much more infectious.
Alarm over the new variant, which was first identified in the southeast of England, has resulted in British travelers being cut off from much of Europe and other parts of the world as countries imposed restrictions on travel from the UK.
While the new variant of Covid-19 is believed to originate in England, it has also been identified in Denmark, the Netherlands and in Australia, World Health Organization Covid-19 technical lead Maria Van Kerkhove said on Sunday.
Researchers are investigating a similar variant of the virus in South Africa, prompting additional travel restrictions from there.
Remember: No evidence the new variants are any more virulent, meaning they do not cause more severe disease. They do not appear to affect the effects of treatments or the protection offered by vaccines
Here's a list of countries that have banned travel from the UK so far:

Assistant Secretary for Health, Admiral Brett Giroir, told CNN’s John Berman that as of this morning, there isn't any information on a possible UK travel restriction to or from the United States over a new variant of coronavirus.
"So, I think everything is possible we just need to put everything on the table, have an open scientific discussion and make a best recommendation."
Meanwhile, Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN he would advise against additional restrictions on UK travel if the matter arises in a task force meeting planned for later in the day.
The US must "without a doubt keep an eye on it," Fauci said Monday, but he warned that "we don't want to overreact."
Fauci said that while he wasn't criticizing other countries that have suspended flights to the UK, he would not at this time recommend the US take those same steps.
"Follow it carefully, but don't overreact to it," Fauci said.
