Gazette notification to make full vaccination compulsory is amended

The Gazette notification mandating full COVID vaccination to enter public places in Sri Lanka has been amended.

Previously a Gazette notification had been issued prohibiting people who had not been fully vaccinated from entering public places from April 30, 2022.

Order 101 states that persons who are not fully vaccinated should not enter public places.

Accordingly, the total number of Covid-19 infections reported in the country thus far is 663,373, the department said.
