Αssociated Press reports from Nicosia that Cyprus will scrap an overnight curfew and allow all government workers to return to their offices on June 10 following a steady decrease in the number of COVID-19 infections over the last few weeks.
Cyprus Health Minister Constantinos Ioannou said Thursday that authorities are pleased with the infection rate’s downward trend but cautioned against people letting their guard down by not sticking to social distancing and mask-wearing.
He announced as of June 1st, all restrictions on indoor seating in bars and restaurants will be lifted, while indoor spaces where people gather in large numbers, including places of worship, theaters, cinemas, and casinos, will be permitted to operate at 50% capacity.
He repeated that nightclubs will re-open on June 10 following a pandemic-induced hiatus of more than a year – a key step forward for the tourism-reliant country.
