HEREâS WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING:
BERLIN â Germany is easing strict restrictions on travel from Britain, Portugal and some other countries that were imposed because of the rise of the more contagious delta variant of the coronavirus.
Germanyâs national disease control center, the Robert Koch Institute, said late Monday that Britain, Portugal, Russia, India and Nepal will be removed from the countryâs highest risk category of âvirus variant areasâ effective Wednesday. They will move into the second-highest category of âhigh-incidence areas.â
The U.K. had been in the top risk category since May 23, and was joined last Tuesday by Russia and Portugal, one of Germanyâs partners in the European Union.
