Country to lift vaccine mandates, crowd limits

Wellington:  New Zealand government has decided to lift the Covid-19 restrictions imposed in the country. New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced this. The decision was taken as daily Covid-19 cases decreased in the country.

The limit on outdoor gatherings will be lifted from late Friday. Sports events and concerts will be allowed  with no restrictions. Vaccine passes and scanning codes would no longer be compulsory from April 4 and most vaccine mandates — requiring employees to be immunized— would be dropped.
