One person has now died in the third wave of COVID-19 in Iceland and we are now among the top ten most infected COVID-19 countries in Europe. As well, masks are now an obligation in certain situations, not a mandatory thing. Valur and Pollý tell you all this and more in this edition of the Reykjavík Newscast.

Note: Due to the effect the Coronavirus is having on tourism in Iceland, it’s become increasingly difficult for the Grapevine to survive. If you enjoy our content and want to help the Grapevine’s journalists do things like eat and pay rent, please consider joining our High Five Club.
