Greece’s government plans to stop imposing monthly fines on senior citizens age 60 and over who failed to get vaccinated against Covid 19.
The measure will temporarily stop on April 15 and will be re-examined in September, Health Minister Athanasios Plevris said. The special committee that advises the government on Covid issues convenes Wednesday to review the relaxation of measures to control the spread of the virus.
