Italy to ease COVID-19 restrictions for vaccinated

Italian officials announced an easing of some coronavirus restrictions for vaccinated people on Wednesday.

Roberto Speranza, Italian minister of health, confirmed the changes which include an exemption from restrictions in the country's red zones for those who are vaccinated. Students who are fully jabbed will no longer be required to take their classes remotely. Vaccine certificates will now have unlimited validity for people who've had booster doses. Previously the certificates had run out after six months.
