Tourists will be able to come to Malta if they are fully vaccinated or provide a negative PCR result. The only exception is British tourists, who before could get to Malta exclusively after full vaccination due to the high prevalence of the Delta variant.
Fearne explained that the recent surge in new cases occurred among unvaccinated tourists. However, they all provided a negative coronavirus test result before boarding the plane. Most of the sick are young people attending English schools. Such schools will be closed from mid-July.
The minister also said Malta only recognises vaccination certificates issued by the European Union and the UK. The so-called "green certificate" of the EU certifies that a citizen has been fully vaccinated or received a positive PCR test with subsequent recovery. The only exception will be unvaccinated children between the ages of 5 and 12, who can visit Malta with a negative test result and accompanied by fully vaccinated parents.
Malta has fully vaccinated 79% of the adult population and plans to raise this figure to 85%. For several June days, there were no new cases of COVID-19 in the country, but in early July their number rose sharply, reaching 96 cases. The rate of positive PCR results rose to 1.18 per 100 tests.[1]
