Covid, Malta rethinks it: doors open to unvaccinated tourists

The authorities of Malta backtrack and decide to also welcome tourists not vaccinated against the coronavirus. A few hours after the entry into force of the provision, in fact, Malta has changed its mind and announced that it will accept all those who can provide a negative test to Covid-19 carried out within 72 hours before arrival. However, it is clarified that tourists will have to observe an unspecified “quarantine period” in an indicated hotel. The change follows criticism from the European Commission, which said that an entry ban for unvaccinated people would be discriminatory.
