As Malta gradually eases restrictions, the lift of one particular measure is bound to make many an expecting parent happy.
Indeed, Deputy Prime Minister and Health Minister Chris Fearne confirmed that COVID-19 measures preventing fathers from joining mothers in the delivery room are to be lifted in the next three weeks.
IVF treatments, which had been put on hold due to the pandemic crisis, are also expected to resume so long as the COVID-19 situation in Malta remains under control.
