The government has further eased the COVID-19 restrictions after the country maintained a low positivity rate.

Kagwe said there will be no temperature screening in public spaces, but instead recommended increased sanitation and hygiene awareness.

The end to the restrictions will also see full resumption of sporting activities on condition that participants are fully vaccinated for persons above 18 years, while school games will resume unconditionally.

Full congregation worship will also resume with more emphasis on having those attending in door gatherings vaccinated.

Following the dropping of the restrictions, the government is said to be working on a strategy to ramp up vaccination exercise, which will see 60 per cent of the population vaccinated.
