Additional restrictions of the «yellow» zone are introduced in Ukraine due to the rise of Covid-19 cases and related hospitalisations.

Since today, a «yellow» zone of quarantine restrictions has been introduced in Lviv and all over Ukraine. Due to this fact, additional restrictions will be applied in our city and in the Lviv region.

How the cinemas will function

Cinemas and other cultural institutions can work with less than two-third or 50% sits occupied in each separate hall.

Gyms and fitness centres

Gyms and fitness centres can function with a restricted number of visitors, namely the presence of one person per 10 square metres.

Restaurants and cafes

Catering establishments can function without restrictions if more than 80% of their staff are vaccinated. Otherwise, there must be no more than four people at the table, keeping the distance 1.5 metres between tables. In Lviv, the establishments having 80% of workers vaccinated are planned to be marked.

Schools and kindergartens

Schools can function if 80% of their workers are vaccinated at least with one dose. In the institutions with lower number of vaccinated staff members, the teachers, educators and pedagogues must bring a certificate that they have endured Covid-19 during the last half a year, or a negative PCR-test no older than 72 hours, or a reference from a doctor about the contraindications to vaccination. Kindergartens and primary school will function at any level of epidemiological danger, as the children who study there need a direct contact and communication with an educator or a teacher.

Establishments of higher education

Universities can also function if 80% of their workers are vaccinated at least with one dose. Ukrainian Catholic University is studying fully offline, as more than 80% of their teachers and students are vaccinated. National university “Lviv Polytechnic” have transfered to hybrid format, and Ivan Franko Lviv National University is functioning fully remotely.

Mass events

In addition, new quarantine restrictions ban the holding of mass events with more than one person per 4 square metres of the territory, or more than two-third sits occupied in each separate hall.

Conclusion

The restrictions of the «yellow» zone won’t be implemented if all participants (visitors) and organisers of mass events, workers of the cinemas, theatres, museums and other cultural institutions, gyms and swimming pools will get at least one shot against coronavirus. However, if an unvaccinated visitor enters an establishment or event, the rules and restrictions of the “yellow” level will come into force. Final decision of whether to serve only vaccinated visitors or follow all quarantine restrictions is up to the business owners.
