Im new to this forum so please excuse me if this has been asked before. I had a special holiday booked for my 60th in May 2020. Obviously this is not now happening and my travel agent has rebooked it (with consent) for May 2021. My annual insurance policy expires mid May this year and I have been informed new policy will not cover anything to do with covid. I understand all this, just wondering if any advice as to the best policies around currently to give me some protection. Thanks

    Best protection against Coronavirus?

    None. Not now it is known.

    No insurance company is going to cover covid19 until there is a proven vaccination or you have proven immunity.
