Yukon lifts some COVID-19 restrictions as active cases decline
WHITEHORSE — The Yukon government has lifted a series of public health restrictions as active COVID-19 infections decline and the vaccination rate rises.
Starting today, the territory says masks are no longer required in indoor spaces but are strongly recommended when it’s difficult to practise physical distancing.
It adds that shops, grocers, bars, restaurants, recreational centres and transit operators should be respected if they request that clients wear masks.
Self-isolation after domestic travel is no longer required for both vaccinated and unvaccinated people, while bars and restaurants may return to full capacity.
