Within the next few days, a decree is expected to be issued which will release all those who have been vaccinated from the obligation to conduct a weekly rapid test for employees, CNA reported on Wednesday.

Earlier it was officially announced that people who have been fully vaccinated do not need to self-isolate if they find they are a contact of a Covid positive case.

Citing informed sources, CNA also said that the health ministry in cooperation with the ministry of finance is starting to categorise people who work in essential services, primarily at airports and ports, whose vaccination will be done by age.
