Bahrain restricts access for unvaccinated as Covid-19 cases spike
The Peninsula
Bahrain said on Thursday it would restrict access to most public venues to immunized people only after coronavirus cases hit a record high in the Gulf state which has seen an influx of visitors from Saudi Arabia after a causeway reopened this week.
Health Ministry Undersecretary Waleed Al Manea attributed the spike to large gatherings at home during Ramadan and Eid holidays as well as increased testing. As of May 21, only people aged above 18 who have completed 14 days since their second vaccine dose or who have recovered from the virus will be allowed at commercial centres, with the exception of supermarkets, banks, pharmacies and hospitals.More Related News
