YEREVAN. – Next week there will be a change in the quarantine decision in Armenia. Accordingly, those who have been vaccinated against the coronavirus will no longer need to take a PCR test to leave or enter the country. Acting Minister of Health Anahit Avanesyan told reporters about this on Thursday.

"Vaccinations are an important step to chuck out the [coronavirus-related] restrictions and return to normal life," Avanesyan added.

At present, all those over the age of 18 can be vaccinated in Armenia against COVID-19 by applying to local polyclinics.

The AstraZeneca and Sputnik V vaccines are currently available in Armenia, but a large batch of Chinese vaccines are expected in the near future, and negotiations are underway to obtain other coronavirus vaccines, too.
