The next reopening step will depend on meeting vaccination and hospitalisation milestones, De Croo confirms - just like Saturday's reopening did.
"9 out of 10 people over 65 are now vaccinated" in Belgium, De Croo says.
The threshold necessary for Saturday's reopening was 7.

If on 9 June 80% of vulnerable people are vaccinated (corresponds to 1/2 of all adults) and less than 500 people in intensive care, then:
ποΈββοΈ Gyms & theatres reopen
π» Bars/restaurants serve inside
π Closing time moves from 22h to 23:30
π Small gatherings (4) allowed at home

ποΈBy 1 July, 60% of Belgian adults should have received their 1st vaccination (up from 40% today), De Croo says.
If so, then people can go back to the office. Events of up to 2,000 people can happen indoors.

ποΈ13 August: outdoor festivals of any size can take place in Belgium - if vaccinations have kept pace (should be well over 70% by then).
ποΈ1 September envisioned as the end of all restrictions. "The day on which we can once again allow our social life to flourish" says De Croo.
