However, there are still strict coronavirus restrictions in regions with high levels of infection pressure, such as Uusimaa, Southwest Finland, and Ostrobothnia.

There, restaurants can be open between 5 AM and 7 PM but may not serve alcohol after 5 PM. In other regions with less infection, bars may be open until 11 PM.

Finland reached the peak of infection in March but has largely had control of the virus pandemic.

A total of 84,131 people have been registered as infected during the pandemic, and 887 have died due to COVID-19, according to John Hopkins University’s survey.
