Austria will relax most measures against unvaccinated people in February, its chancellor said Saturday, as the rate of serious infections wanes.
People without coronavirus vaccines will be allowed in shops starting Feb. 12, and in restaurants and hotels from Feb. 19, Chancellor Karl Nehammer said at a press briefing. Proof of a negative test will still be needed for restaurants, bars and pubs.
