The Italian government has scrapped fines on people who refused to get mandatory COVID-19 jabs, it said in a statement late on Monday, after they were introduced to boost vaccinations with the country struggling to curb the pandemic.

“Taking away the fines from those who have not been vaccinated is a way of winking at no-vaccination plotters and deniers,” said Riccardo Magi, a lawmaker from the small +Europa party.
