The public health situation is much improved, as the majority ofthe population have been multilple-vaccinated, and almost al ot the population now have someantlbodies as a result of either vaccination or exposure. The government has removed some ofthe protective measures that were in place, and there is no longer aneed for compulsory mask wearing, additional spacing of seats, and reporting of cases to the COviD response team.
