Green pass likely to be introduced for museums as well


Moving toward the introduction of mandatory green passes for museums: heritage institutions, which previously seemed excluded from the measure, now appear to be included. More will be known in the coming hours.

The green pass could also become mandatory to enter museums, despite the fact that they are places with low risk of assemblages. The latest guidelines from the control booth seem to be moving in this direction: the rationale lies in the fact that, since museums are indoor places, they will be assimilated to gyms, swimming pools, theaters, and cinemas, places for which the introduction of the health certificate attesting to tampon or vaccination was already taken for granted days ago. This was not the case, however, for museums, which at first seemed to be excluded from the measure, given that these are in most cases seldom-visited places, where spacing out is spontaneous and where there is therefore no risk of contracting Covid.

As for the modalities, it appears that the green pass will start on August 1, with a single dose. After that, probably in September, the green pass will be issued only with two doses-the idea is to give everyone a chance to get vaccinated in time. The dates are not known at the moment because it is not known how the vaccination campaign will go following the introduction of the obligation: the extraordinary commissioner for the emergency, General Francesco Paolo Figliuolo, expects a real boom in bookings. A council of ministers is scheduled for 5 p.m. today, and then Prime Minister Mario Draghi will hold a press conference to explain the new measures.
