Region of North Kazakhstan shifts to "High Risk" status
Kazakhstan has implemented a three-tiered zoning system to manage the spread of COVID-19, categorising its regions into "red", "yellow", and "green" zones based on the pace of the virus's spread. However, the specific quarantine rules for each zone are not explicitly detailed in the latest search results.
The "red" zone, indicating a higher pace of COVID-19 spread, usually entails strict quarantine measures such as lockdowns of non-essential businesses, restrictions on movement, and curfews. In Kazakhstan, for regions in the "red" zone, cafes will now operate until 20:00 on weekdays, while shopping centers will close at 18:00.
The "yellow" zone, representing a moderate risk, often involves limited restrictions such as reduced capacity in public places, mask mandates, and possible quarantine requirements for travelers from high-risk areas. Currently, three regions in Kazakhstan are in the "yellow" zone, including Almaty, Zhambyl, and Kyzylorda regions.
The "green" zone indicates low risk, with most activities resuming normally under basic preventive measures like mask-wearing and social distancing guidance. As of the latest data, two regions in Kazakhstan are in the "green" zone, including East Kazakhstan and Turkestan regions.
It's worth noting that the North Kazakhstan Region has moved from the "yellow" to the "red" zone in terms of COVID-19 spread. Twelve regions in Kazakhstan are currently in the "red" zone, including North Kazakhstan, Nur-Sultan, Almaty, Shymkent, Akmolinsk, Akmola, Atyrau, West Kazakhstan, Karaganda, Kostanay, Mangystau, and Pavlodar regions.
To obtain accurate, current quarantine restrictions by zone, it is recommended to consult Kazakhstan’s official health ministry or government websites directly. The Ministry of Health in Kazakhstan has also ordered a review of vaccination deadlines for small and medium business employees.
