Poland dropped most of its COVID-19 restrictions, except mask-wearing in outdoor places, Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said on Wednesday.

“After holding talks with doctors, and observing the situation nationwide, and in the neighboring countries, we figured out that it may be possible to drop most restrictions,” Morawiecki told a press conference in Warsaw.

“It will be mandatory only to wear masks in outdoor places,” Polish Prime Minister added.

Polish Health Minister Adam Nedzelski said the surge in new COVID-19 cases had not led to a significant increase in hospitalization, resulting in the removal of most restrictions.

“65.6% of the country’s population received COVID-19 vaccines,” the Health Minister added, according to MAP.

Poland follows in the footsteps of many other European countries that have lifted COVID-19 restrictions as the health situation improves, including the UK, France, Austria, Denmark.
