South Tyrol has already done it. The rest of Italy arrives soon. From Monday 28 June, when the whole peninsula will be in the white zone, you will no longer have to wear masks outdoors. The confirmation was given by the Minister of Health Speranza after the favorable opinion of the Technical Scientific Committee. “The obligation will be overcome, always in compliance with the precautionary indications of the CTS” said the minister.

RULES

From next Monday, with the farewell of the Valle d’Aosta to the yellow zone, all of Italy will be in the zone of minimum risk and therefore a piece of freedom will be regained. The CTS experts agreed that the circulation of the virus is low enough to remove the masks outdoors as it did last summer. The decree should arrive on Friday after the last monitoring data. The go-ahead will be only for the regions in the white zone, if any were to return to yellow or orange, the obligation would return into force.

According to experts, if everyone present is vaccinated, the masks could be removed even indoors. However, the government has not made this decision and there should not be such a rule in the decree.
