Botswana health authorities say starting from Monday, fully vaccinated travellers entering the country will no longer need a negative Covid-19 PCR test result, reports US state broadcaster Voice of America.

Unvaccinated visitors can also get inoculated free at Botswana's entry points.

Minister of Health Edwin Dikoloti said all people age 12 and older will be required to show proof of full vaccination against Covid-19 at entry points.

Travellers without a vaccination certificate will still be required to undergo a PCR test.
