(ANSA) - TEL AVIV, 07 MAR - Israel reopens.
As of today, as determined by the government late yesterday evening, most of the economic activities, including restaurants, cafes, schools (in some areas with low infection rates), cultural events, tourist attractions and catering in hotels, will be back in operation. .
The Ben Gurion airport will also carry out a partial reopening, allowing from the next few hours - without any necessary authorization from the authorities - the return of 3 thousand Israelis a day and the quarantine for immunized non-immigrants will be at home.
With nearly 5 million Israelis vaccinated with at least one dose (3,800,000 even with the second) and a number of under-controlled cases, the restrictions have therefore relaxed. The decisive element is the Green Pass (double immunization or recovery from the virus) which allows owners to access a greater number of services than those who still have to obtain it. For example, restaurants will be able to accommodate up to 75% of their capacity of patrons indoors with the Green Pass and up to 100 outdoors, even if obviously spaced. For the cultural and non-cultural event halls, the percentage is 50% and up to 300 people with Green Pass: in addition, 5% of individuals with a recent negative buffer can enter. Newly opened - almost in the same way - the reception rooms of the hotels (and the structures themselves) for Green Pass holders. The same applies to places of worship with precise rules. However, the health authorities have not ruled out new restrictions for the Passover holiday (end of March). (HANDLE).
