Guernsey scraps all Covid curbs

Saturday, 17 Feb, 2022 0

Guernsey has lifted all Covid-19 restrictions.

Anyone testing positive is no longer legally compelled to self-isolate, although it is still recommended.

Public Health contact tracing has also been scrapped.

Travel restrictions have been lifted with no border testing or the need to fill in the Travel Tracker form.

"The support of islanders, including the huge take-up of the vaccination programme, has put us in the position where we can now move with confidence towards the ongoing management of the virus outside of emergency regulations," Dr Nicola Brink, Guernsey’s Director of Public Health said.

""We in the Bailiwick, are now moving towards treating Covid-19 as an endemic disease. This is a huge step forward for us."

Alderney’s President William Tate said: "There will be people who are anxious about the legal restrictions being lifted but we had to do this at some point. With public health and the economy well balanced in our pandemic response, the time to move forward is now."

However the government insists Covid has ‘not gone away.’
