The Belgian government on Friday decided to ease measures against Covid-19 in restaurants, nightclubs, bars and cultural venues following the culmination of the wave of Omicron infections.
From next Friday, the Belgians will be able to frequent the clubs again as they will reopen and the mandatory closing time for bars and restaurants will be lifted, according to government experts.
While children aged 12 and over will not have to wear masks at school and four mandatory days a week, working from home will be a recommendation and not an obligation.
The number of new daily infections has marked a decline in the country with a population of about 11.5 million. Friday’s infection figures fell 44% compared to last week.
The number of patients in hospitals and intensive care units is also declining, although there have been more deaths due to Omicron in recent days. The bi-weekly incidence rate is about 4,000 infections per 100,000 inhabitants.
