What places have fully opened? I don't know of any. My definition of fully opened is no masks, no vaccine passports and no test/quarantine required to enter the country. I don't know of any country that fits even half of these criteria at the moment.
- rsynnott 5y ago> My definition of fully opened is no masks, Many countries have reduced mask requirements to "just on public transport, in shops, in hospitals etc". You should expect some of those rump restrictions to hang around for years. > no vaccine passports and no test/quarantine required to enter the country. Realistically, international travel to most places is probably going to require a vaccine passport or else a test for the next few years. Other uses of vaccine passports (restaurants and bars etc) are likely to be more time-limited, and many places are already phasing them out. However, beyond those items, many countries are fully opened or will be soon. (Obviously, this is all based on current circumstance; if tomorrow a vaccine which gives 99% sterilising immunity comes out, 7 billion doses are rapidly manufactured, distributed and administered, all of this goes away. But that's very much the hopelessly optimistic outcome...)
- chki 5y agoSorry, but now who's the one shifting the goalposts? Masks on public transport or vaccine requirements for entering another country are very small things that can have a big effect on the virus. It's unreasonable to demand a "pure" response to the virus.
- jjeaff 5y agoI won't consider us fully open until all public spaces allow me to go there fully naked! I don't think many people would consider having to wear a mask to an event/store to mean that the event/store is closed.
