Friuli Venezia Giulia on Monday
turned to moderate-risk yellow in Italy's tiered system of
COVID-19-linked measures, making it the first region in several
months to move from being a low-risk white zone, following an
upswing in contagion.
This means that the north-eastern region is set to get an early
taste of the measures that will apply to the rest of the nation
next week, with people unvaccinated for the coronavirus excluded
from a series of social, cultural and leisure activities.
As of December 6 people throughout Italy will need a 'Super
Green Pass', which shows that they are vaccinated for COVID-19
or have recovered from it in the last six months, to be able to
sit inside bars and restaurants or to go to the theatre, cinema
or a soccer ground, among other things.
Furthermore, with Friuli Venezia Giulia turning yellow, it
becomes obligatory for people to wear facemasks outdoors.
