Italy’s “COVID Green Pass” explained

Published

on

Italy is to make it compulsory for all workers in the nation to have a Covid “green pass” – so what is it and how will work?

Italy is set to make it compulsory for all workers within the nation to carry a COVID Green Pass – a document displaying proof of vaccination, negative test or recovery from the virus.

Green Passes have already been rolled out across Italy, but for different sectors. Currently, they are already required to access train stations within Italy as well as entertainment venues such as cinemas along with recreational activities including swimming pools and gyms.

The pass is also required in order to access a cafe or restaurant.

Educational staff including teachers are already required to show a Green Pass – some have been blocked from working due to failure to display one

The mandate across the Italian workforce is the first of its kind to be rolled out in Europe and one of the strictest, too.

The document will state proof of vaccination, a negative test or recovery from the virus.

Anyone without a pass will reportedly face suspension from work and may have their pay stopped after five days.

The Italian Government recently approved a law to extend the requirements to all workplaces and employees across all workforces – including those that are self-employed.

Organisations as well as employees face penalties if found to be working without holding a Green Pass.

Almost 65% of Italians have now been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 however in recent months, infections have again started to rise to the contagious Delta variant of the virus.

Since the pandemic begun, Italy has recorded more than 4.6 million cases of COVID to date and over 130,000 COVID-related deaths.

In Short:
– Trump gives Hamas three to four days to accept a U.S.-backed Gaza peace plan, warning of consequences.
– Hamas calls the plan biased and insists on a complete Israeli withdrawal before considering any agreement.
U.S. President Donald Trump has given Hamas three to four days to accept a U.S.-backed peace plan for Gaza, warning of severe consequences if they reject it.The plan, shared by mediators Qatar and Egypt, emerged after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu endorsed it during a visit to the White House. Hamas, which was not part of the talks, is expected to review the proposal that calls for disarmament, a previously rejected demand.

Trump stated that support for the plan came from both Israeli and Arab leaders, and he emphasised the need for Hamas to respond promptly. The proposal includes a ceasefire, hostage exchanges, an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, and disarmament of Hamas, along with a transitional government.

A Hamas source described the plan as biased towards Israel and containing unacceptable conditions.

The group maintains that a complete Israeli withdrawal is a prerequisite for their agreement to any deal, while they are unwilling to disarm.

Pressure Mounts

Hamas faces significant pressure as foreign ministers from Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the UAE, Qatar, and Egypt have supported the initiative. Turkey’s intelligence head is also set to join discussions in Doha, marking a new level of mediation.

Despite expressing initial support, Netanyahu is cautious about the plan’s implications for Palestinian statehood and faces pressure from his coalition. Public sentiment in Gaza reflects a desire for peace, albeit with scepticism about the sincerity of both Trump and Netanyahu’s commitments.
