Italy: COVID-19 'Green Pass' needed for indoor venues from Friday
Issued on:
A so-called 'Green Pass' is now required to enter archaeological sites, gyms, theaters, indoor pools and the indoor sections of restaurants, bars and cafes. To obtain a certificate, individuals must show they have received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine approved for use in the European Union, recovered from COVID-19 in the past six months or have negative lab results from a test done within the previous 48 hours. The government announced the rule on July 22. Some 50 million of Italy's 60 million residents had downloaded the certification by late July.
