Canadian citizens and permanent residents who are fully vaccinated and test negative for COVID-19 may soon be exempt from the two-week quarantine upon their return home, Canadian Health Minister Theresa said on Tuesday. Tam.
Authorities expect this to happen in early July.
Travelers who were vaccinated at least 14 days before arriving in Canada will be able to avoid a three-day stay in a government-approved quarantine hotel, but will need to be isolated until they test negative for COVID-19 . .
Currently, travelers arriving by plane must spend three days in quarantine in a hotel at their own expense, then complete two weeks in self-isolation. But soon, they won’t have to be tested for coronavirus until they arrive in Canada and will remain in isolation until they test negative.
Dr Tam said she would like 75% of eligible Canadian residents to be vaccinated before recommending that restrictions be relaxed for tourists and business travelers who are not Canadian citizens or permanent residents of the country.
Canada’s Minister of Public Services hopes to have enough vaccine doses for 80% of eligible Canadians to be fully immunized by the end of July.
