Chief Medical Officer Cecília Müller said the ban on visits to elderly care homes and social institutions has been lifted.
The CMO said all visitors must hold a vaccination certificate and can be accompanied by children under 18. Residents who hold a vaccination certificate are now allowed to leave the home without having to get tested on returning. Those who do not hold a certificate and want to leave for longer than 72 hours can return only after a negative rapid antigen test result, she added.
