Evidence is showing that people who’ve been infected with COVID-19 aren’t necessarily safe against re-infection from other COVID-19 variants.
Reinfections were thought to be less common however recent studies are showing that it is completely possible. A city in Brazil documented several cases of reinfection, where three-fourths of the population were thought to have been previously infected.
People who were recently infected have a much lower chance of reinfection, and reinfection should be considerably less serious. However, it cannot be ruled out at all.

Prime Minister, Robert Abela has announced a set of measures to come into force on the 11th of February ahead of Carnival Weekend.
One of these measures was for passengers aboard the Gozo Channel who will be travelling by car. the directive states that they are to be ‘encouraged’ to stay inside their vehicles for the journey.
However, the UHM has called for the lifting of this directive being as it isn’t considered safe to do so. This would go against International Maritime Conventions on Security as well as the protocols of the Gozo Channel itself.
UHM is also calling for clarification on the matter since people are now confused as to whether they should remain in their cars or not, and who to listen to.
