Following a nightly discussion in the Corona Cabinet last weekend, it was decided to impose a series of additional restrictions on the economy, in the hope of curbing the surge in serious illness and hospitalizations. As part of the restrictions, the layout of the purple character will be restored, and the layout of the green character will be expanded. Towards the entry into force of the restrictions, "Israel Today" is tidying up the new outlines.
When will the purple character take effect, and what does it mean?
The purple character will take effect this coming Monday, 16.8. It will apply in malls and shops, except in stores up to a size of 100 square meters, and will limit occupancy by one person per 7 square meters - for example, a 130 square meter store can accommodate 18 people, including staff.
How will the restrictions of the green mark change and starting from when?
green label applies to all industries, except malls and trade, starting this Wednesday, 18.8.
Under what conditions will be allowed entry with a green label?
The green mark allows entry only with a vaccinated or recovering certificate or with a negative corona test, and it requires, of course, wearing a mask.
At what age will you be required to present a green sign?
The green mark will be applied to every person from the age of 3. The tests from the age of 12-3 will be state-funded.
People aged 12 and over who have chosen not to be vaccinated, and therefore do not have a green mark, will be required to bear the costs of the tests, which give a green mark for one day.
What tests should a non-vaccinated person present?
Entry to complexes without a green sign is conditional on the presentation of a rapid inspection, which is carried out no more than 24 hours before the date of entry.
The great freedom is in full swing, the summer camps are over and the children (and parents) are climbing the walls. What about attractions?
Starting Tuesday, August 17, entry from age 3 to attractions will require a green label.
Free tests will be given until the age of 12.
What are the restrictions on mass events?
For events without seating, they are marked - in accordance with the green sign: up to 1,000 people will be allowed in an enclosed space, and up to 5,000 people will be allowed in an open space. For events where the seats are marked - unlimited, according to the green sign.
