Malta ‘one of the least strict countries’ in EU for COVID-19 measures

In an index published by the University of Oxford, it was reported that Malta is one of the least strict countries in the European Union when it comes to COVID-19 mitigation measures.

The index highlights international governmental efforts with regards to controlling the pandemics and considers measures such as curfews, lockdowns and others with Malta scoring a 52.78 based on information gathered up until January 11.

For comparison, Italy registered an 80.56 score, Germany and Ireland 85.19 and Finland 52.31 with the researchers noting that a high score does not mean that a country has been more effective in the imposition of its measures.
