Quarantining now and it’s a joke

Went to Greece to visit girlfriends family where cases are lower than here.

2 negative tests.

Anyway every day someone phones and spends 10 minutes reading the data protection act then tells me the same information they’ve said every other day that I have to take a test on day 2 and day 8.
No useful information and nothing changes.

Total f**king waste of time and money.

One of hancocks friends must be getting rich off this. I can see no other purpose
