The government offers vaccination incentives as a surge in coronavirus infections relegates the island to the Red zone
The Cypriot government has come up with measures to increase vaccine uptake amid a recent surge in Covid-19 cases while introducing restrictions in places with a high risk of transmission. The decisions of the Council of Ministers were announced on Friday by the new Minister of Health Michalis Hadjipantelas. He appealed particularly to the young people who are hesitating to vaccinate to protect themselves and by extension, their families and the society in general.
According to the government’s Press and Information Office, the series of measures is divided into five pillars:
Pillar 1: Incentives to accelerate the vaccination plan:
Pillar 2: The Minister of Health will continue consultation with public and private organisations and businesses, to provide incentives for vaccination, especially to young people aged 18-30. These incentives are expected to be unveiled at the next meeting of the Council of Ministers.
Pillar 3: Stricter measures will be introduced in places of increased congregation and increased risk of virus transmission, and in places which have seen a spike in new cases:
Pillar 4: The information campaign for public awareness concerning vaccinations will be intensified, focusing on the younger population.
Pillar 5: The government will exert stricter controls and supervision of the implementation of the protocols and health guidelines.
The European Centre of Disease Control (ECDC) placed Cyprus in the Red zone because of a surge in coronavirus infections in the past couple of weeks. Countries enter the Red zone when their 14-day cumulative Covid-19 case notification rate is more than 200 but less than 500. On Friday, the health ministry announced 529 new Covid cases, and if this trend persists, the island risks falling in Deep Red territory.
