PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia will tighten the screws on unvaccinated and untested people by denying them access to indoor dining and cultural venues in an effort to contain the spread of the coronavirus, Health Minister Anahit Avanesyan said on Monday, November 29.

Avanesyan told a press conference that beginning from January 1, 2022, people will have to present proof of vaccination or a negative PCR test result in order to access said places, Aysor.am reports.

"Yes, those restricting measures might cause some inconvenience but given public health issues we believe it's necessary to take such steps," the Minister of Health said..

According to her, people who can't get jabbed for health reasons will not be affected by the new restrictions, for them a negative test will suffice.

Avanesyan also said Armenia is planning to restrict travel from South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Madagascar and Tanzania, where omicron – the new coronavirus variant – is most wide-spread.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
