Speaking virtually on TVAM, Health Minister Chris Fearne confirmed that children in school will no longer be required to wear masks.
The measure was hinted at being removed by the Health Minister who said that the epidemiological situation would be assessed during the Easter period to see if this were possible.
Following a statement by Prime Minister Robert Abela, who said that we need to move towards a ‘normalcy’ where everyone decides how to best make their health choices, Fearne revealed that the masks will in fact be removed as of April 13th.
The measure had sparked several protests, with one parent even hosting a one-man protest to unmask the kids. This measure comes as other restrictions are eased, including travel and events health restrictions.
