Italy considers taking Greece off high-risk countries for Covid-19

Traveling restrictions from Spain and France to continue

Newsroom October 5 09:43

According to Italian media, the government of Rome intends to remove Greece from the list of Covid-19 “high-risk countries”, which provides for a mandatory test for all passengers arriving at Italian airports. As was leaked, these emergency measures will continue to apply to those traveling from Spain and France to Italy.

At the same time the local police, as the newspaper La Repubblica reports, checks for the observance of the safety rules (starting from the use of the mask) will soon be carried out by the men and women of the Italian army.
