A dozen Greek Islands will be fully vaccinated within a fortnight

At least a dozen Greek islands popular with British holidaymakers - including Hydra, Skyros and Mamma Mia film location Skopelos - will be fully vaccinated within the next fortnight.

In a bid to lure back travellers, the Greek government has launched 'Operation Blue Freedom' to inoculate everyone on its 200-plus occupied islands by the end of June.

Greek political leaders have promised that tourist favourites such as Rhodes, Kos and Santorini will be prioritised for vaccines, heaping pressure on Transport Secretary Grant Shapps to move the islands from the 'amber' travel list.

Last week, Germans were given the go-ahead to book beach holidays in the country without having to quarantine on return. But Brits still face restrictions when travelling there, despite coronavirus rates on some islands dropping to zero.
