BERLIN, June 11, 2021 (BSS/AFP) – Germany will lift its pandemic travel warning for most countries from July 1, Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said Friday, bringing back more normalcy as citizens are increasingly vaccinated against Covid-19.

Countries recording infection rates of 50-200 cases per 100,000 people in seven days would no longer be deemed a “risk-zone”. Restrictions however remain in place for countries with higher levels of infections, or where virus variants are circulating, such as Britain or India.
