Paphos Life

I have had a phone call this morning from the General hospital. It was just to remind me that I will need a 'safepass' for my appointment tomorrow

Just returned from Lidl and Cycleband on the Polis road and was asked for my safepass before been let into the shops.

is safepass a permanent issue even though you had both vacs, or just till the end of the month.

in the paphos news section then.

From Tuesday until the end of the month, a SafePass will be required at all indoor and outdoor areas where more than 20 people — including the businesses’ employees — can congregate, the health ministry said on Friday.

Because the 'safepass' seems to have been quite successful and mainly well accepted, I would not be surprised if the need for it is extended past the end of the month. I would certainly welcome it being needed for an extended period .

A safe pass is not enough for most hospitals you will need a minimum of proof of inoculation and a Covid nose test pass to get into any private hospital as I have just found out...

Well, it may be different for inpatients or outpatients. Certainly, the Iasis and the Evangelismos and the General all accept a copy of the vaccination certificate for outpatients

As an outpatient Blue Cross also accepts a copy of the vaccination card, name, phone number and name of doctor/department being visited written down and temperature taken just inside the entrance.

We've not had to use a covid nose-test pass (by which I presume you mean the free antigen test) to get into private hospitals. We've just had to show our vaccine certificates along with id.

My wife had a small medical procedure last week, and she had to have nose test, the day before , along with the proof of jabs, to be allowed into the private hospital.
