With the arrival of Christmas, another package of measures has come into force, applying from December 25 to January 9.
The government has eased conditions for the fully vaccinated and those who recently recovered from Covid: they will be able to travel to the mountains and stay in hotels, allowed to open again as of Christmas Day, December 25.
With changes to curfew rules applicable from December 17, family visits will be possible although epidemiologists are calling on people to be cautious when meeting.
Schools will remain closed for the Christmas holidays until Monday, January 10.
