The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine adopted amendments to Resolution No. 1236, establishing new quarantine restrictions to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The resolution comes into force 7 days after its publication.
In particular, the adopted changes provide that the COVID certificate will be of two types (the so-called "yellow" or "green") and will contain information about vaccination, a negative test result (valid for 72 hours) or recovery from COVID-19.
The so-called "yellow" certificate will have information about the first vaccination, and the "green" one - about the full course of vaccination.
Now, in the case of the introduction of the yellow level of epidemic danger, the requirements for the work of educational institutions have been simplified. They will work if they have at least 80% of workers with "yellow" or "green" COVID certificates.
At the same time, restrictions on the yellow level of epidemiological safety do not apply if all participants (visitors) and at least 80% of organizers of public events, employees of cinemas, theaters, museums or other cultural institutions, gyms and swimming pools have a "yellow" or "green" COVID certificate.
The final decision on whether to provide services only to the vaccinated, or to adhere to all quarantine restrictions, rests with the owner.
If the red level of epidemic danger is introduced, educational institutions will work only if 100% of employees have a “green” COVID certificate.
In addition, the current restrictions on the red level will not apply, provided that all participants (visitors), employees and organizers of public events, including religious ones, employees of cinemas, theaters, museums or other cultural institutions, entertainment establishments, shopping and entertainment centers, catering establishments , markets, gyms and pools with a green COVID certificate.
If a person crossing the border of Ukraine has a "yellow" or "green" certificate of vaccination or recovery from COVID-19, it is allowed not to self-isolate. The same applies to persons arriving from the temporarily occupied territories.
Important! COVID certificates will be color-coded exclusively in digital format; printing on paper of the corresponding color is not required.
