Romania will lift all Covid-19 restrictions from Wednesday including requiring a digital pass to access institutions and the obligation to wear protective masks both indoors and outside, Health Minister Alexandru Rafila.

The decision stems from the coalition government's decision to no longer extend a nationwide state of alert two years after the pandemic first hit Romania, Reuters reports.

The country remains the European Union's second-least vaccinated state, with just under 42 per cent of the population fully inoculated amid distrust in state institutions and poor vaccine education.
