Bahrain will be moving to the “green level” from tomorrow, according to the National Medical Taskforce for Combatting the Coronavirus (Covid-19).
Bahrain had adopted the Covid-19 “orange level” from Monday until Thursday to mark Arafah and Eid Al Adha holidays based on restrictions announced earlier for the protection of health and safety of citizens and residents.
The Taskforce emphasised the importance of following preventive measures and reminded every individual of their responsibility for staying aware and helping to reduce the spread of the virus.
The green level will allow the following procedures:
Opening of the below sectors to those who are vaccinated and have completed 14 days after the second dose of a vaccination and those who have recovered from Covid-19, by presenting their green shields on the “BeAware” app. Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by a vaccinated or a recovered person.
• Cinemas
• Organising indoor events and conferences
• Attendance of indoor sporting events
The green level specifies a number of procedures for the vaccinated and the non-vaccinated, namely:
• Opening of shopping malls and shops
• Opening of restaurants and cafes
• Gyms and sports halls
• Swimming pools
• Barber shops, salons and spas
• Playgrounds and entertainment centres
• Entering government centres
• Organising events and conferences in external spaces
• Public attendance of sporting events in outdoor areas
The green level also includes procedures for holding private events in homes, work from home across all government entities, providing the option to attend education and training institutions, all whilst maintaining social distancing procedures and wearing masks, and continuing to follow all precautionary measures to limit the spread of the virus.
