- As of October 10 tests will have to be paid except for those showing symptoms, the under-16s, and people who have received a first vaccination.
- Repetetive testing in companies continues to be encouraged and paid for by the government. Certificates issued from the tests will also be paid for.
- A week known as vaccination week is being planned and 170 mobile vaccination stations will be circulating around the country.
- Anyone who manages to convince someone to get a vaccine will be given a CHF 50.- voucher.
