That will require (yet another) amendment to the Statutory Instrument. One came out today to ensure Angola, Malawi, Mozambique and Zambia are in scope for Red listing tomorrow, but no signs yet of the more substantive change needed for this. What they can do is give people a few days notice so they can get PCRs ordered, but allow NHS PCRs for anyone caught in the shorter time frame. But suffice to say that the digital ink will not be dry on the SI before the details get updated in either this thread or the UK Arrivals thread, both in the Coronavirus and travel forum.
