I'm in the UK right now, and they're big on the self-tests. Doesn't matter if vax, to get in some events have to have a "lateral flow" test, which is a DIY swab, mix in liquid, drop on a test card thing. Takes about 20 minutes. The tests are free. I've done four in the last week and a half, but there's really no masking or anything.

Sounds like it's better than many parts of the USA.

Here in TX everything is 'open' but there are a lot of die-hard maskers running around, voluntary breathing their own stale air

Took my son to the pediatrician Friday.
Took us a little time putting a mask on. Forgot how to do it.
Did get the vax Friday as well, well, two..
Tdap and Meningococcal 12 year vaxes.

That's pretty much the last possible Covid item that was left hanging over people for the UK. He did say there will be some winter plans, but waiting to see what those are.

UK is still pretty much a no covid requirement nation. I saw one user mention they had to do a lateral flow, I suspect the venue they went to independently required it not the gov.

I flew to Malta this summer and that was still difficult. Had to wait in line for health paperwork to be processed. For my return to the UK, I had to take a lateral flow about 72 hours in advance and then 48 hours after landing...so there are still international rules in place at the moment.

Correct, not Gov required, event required (though these events are with the UK Military). With the testing, no masks required at event, and they don't ask/care about vax status. The tests are free at any pharmacy, they'll hand you a box of seven tests just for asking. The catch-22 is that in order for it to "count" you have to register your results with the Gov NHS website. It's still self-report, you just click "my test was negative", and they text you back with the results you entered. The text is your "proof" for entry to the event.
UK Gov is still requiring masks for public transit (taxis, buses, the tube) and most workers at restaurants etc. will be wearing them. Public wearing is minimal. Travel into UK is rough though, no vax requires 10 day quarantine. Vax still requires pre-flight PCR, and post-flight PCR.
