I thought that and then I read a timeline.
He was tested more than once after his return and tested negative. With an obviously compromised immune system due to age It seems he developed pneumonia first, then subsequently after medical treatment for that developed COVID. Almost definitely didn’t get COVID on his trip. Did it cause his pneumonia? Unknown, but likely IMO. Is he a cunt for selling out and jetting off? Well yeah, but he did nothing illegal, so we live in a time when vast swathes of people are essentially calling for more authoritarian and prohibitive governance that bans all international travel for an unknown and un-agreed time period.
Oh, and he was one fucking hundred years old.

Testing isn't always that reliable.
There's a case of a woman in New Zealand that tested negative, had no symptoms, spend two weeks in quarantine, tested negative again, then developed symptoms. www.abc.net.au/news/2021-01-24/new-zealand-reports-first-community-coronavirus-case-in-months/13087244
Anyone who does any international travel in these ... interesting times is an arsehole, as far as I'm concerned.
That said, if you manage to survive a 100 years on this shitty planet, you can do whatever you like. You've bloody well earned it.

I think if BA is allowed to fly what can we expect?
But Piers Morgan can fuck himself over his trip to Antigua. Why has he got away with it barely criticised? Why has no major media organisation run the picture of him in a Nazi uniform? Where is the remote control?

BA is NOT allowed to fly.
This is because in 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune.
