While this rule has been lifted, some restaurants or businesses, in general, might still permit to ask for vaccination cards. 

Businesses are also free from having a Covid-19 plan in place under the new rules. Going to the gym is also pretty easy now. There will be no need for your vaccination status. There is also no limit on the number of people doing indoor exercises.

However, all those who are over 12-year-old have to wear their masks within venues that capacitate more than 1000 people. The rules have also changed for those going to clubs. You may now sit and stand while drinking.
