Austria’s fourth lockdown to end for vaccinated people on Sunday
Austria’s fourth national lockdown of the pandemic will end on Sunday but restrictions will remain for unvaccinated people, the country’s chancellor has said.
Karl Nehammer said the end of the lockdown will be an “opening with a seatbelt”, meaning some measures — such as an obligation to wear masks on public transport and inside stores and public spaces — will also stay in place for people who are vaccinated or have recovered from Covid-19.
