Apr 23 2021 Share

During today’s COVID-19 update streamed on saħħa, Superintendent for Public Health Charmaine Gauci revealed that Malta’s mask-wearing protocol will be re-assessed once the majority of the population is vaccinated.

Professor Gauci revealed that Malta’s Health Authorities are currently monitoring what is going on in Israel, where the government has removed mandatory mask-wearing after most of the country was inoculated.

She went on to reiterate the ECDC’s sentiments that masks are to be worn in public spaces and gatherings until the country reaches herd immunity and measures will be reconsidered once the majority is vaccinated.
