The Manston diphtheria problem was reported in the news. The more disturbing thing is the rate they emptied the centre. Sending people all over the country who may be carrying this disease and others.
Maybe it is time the Border force and RNLI applied the rule? no Q flag no port entry.
The Q Flag As per INTERCO, the Q flag denotes “My vessel is healthy. I require free pratique”. It is a flag that is hoisted inevitably by all vessels prior to entering the port to denote that the vessel is healthy and disease free and requests clearance. :rolleyes:
