Turkey eases Covid restrictions; Fighting disease will be at an individual level
The Asharq Al-Awsat reported, citing Turkish Health Minister Fahrettin Koca, Turkey eased the majority of coronavirus-related restrictions on Wednesday, almost two years after the first case was identified in the country.
In a televised speech, Koca said wearing masks will not be mandatory outdoors or indoors when there is enough ventilation.
The report said that a contact tracing app code will no longer be asked when entering places like shopping malls or public institutions.
