Voters have given a solid backing to the government’s Covid laws.
Yesterday 62% backed the current restrictions, including the need for a health pass to enter public spaces.
The support is despite large protests over the last few weeks. Anti-Covid law campaigners called the restrictions discriminatory.
The only political party which backed the rejection of the laws was the Swiss People’s Party. But its head, Marco Chiesa, says they will accept the result.
