DR is back to normal
Almost two years after the arrival of the pandemic, President Luis Abinader decided to suspend all the measures imposed by COVID-19, including the use of the mask and the carrying of the vaccination card to enter all places.
Abinader justified his decision by the low incidence of the disease in the country after passing a fifth wave of infections.
With this decision, the Dominican Republic became the first country in Latin America to suspend all its restrictions.
