This is the current mandate in North Cyprus:
23 August 2021
There was a Council of Ministers meeting today.
Prime Minister Saner announced that within the framework of the decisions of the Executive Health Committee,
unvaccinated people will meet the expenses of potential PCR/Antigen/Quarantine themselves from Friday, August 27th.
All workplaces will register their employees on the Ministry of Health system and PCR/Antigen
expenses will be met either by workplaces or employees.
In contact or positive case situations, if the person concerned does not have suitable accommodation and is asked to stay in a quarantine hotel, then the
hotel expenses of people who have not completed their vaccination process will be met by themselves, and the general health screening expenses carried out by the Ministry of Health will be covered by the state.
Depending on decisions of the Contagious Disease Executive Committee PCR/Antigen tests may be requested on departure or entry to the country or it will be required for documents that payment has been made first to be presented before passing through the relevant air/sea/land borders.
PCR/Antigen tests can only be carried out in laboratories authorised by the Ministry of Health.
People taking PCR/Antigen tests will first need to register on the Ministry of Health system and select the laboratory to be tested at and pay the fee to the relevant laboratory at the test. Disabled people and those receiving social assistance will be exempted from the fee if they take the PCR/Antigen test in a hospital or health center affiliated with the Ministry of Health.
No neutral or legal person, including public employees, will be granted exemptions and exceptions from the general health screening, the rules, and charges imposed by the Ministry of Health for the control, detection, and spread of the disease in connection with positive and contact people.
Wristband expenses will be covered by the state if the wristband is worn by positive and contacted cases, but if the person concerned is in hotel quarantine instead of having a wristband, all expenses (quarantine expenses) will be met by that person.
The maximum price in the test fee is set at 100 TL for PCR and 40 TL for Antigen. Tests can be carried out below these figures.

Minister of Health Ünal Üstel said
the decision to charge PCR or antigen tests belongs to the Ministry of Finance, and it is not compatible with the realities of the country.
Üstel stated that it is not possible to implement the decision.
“The principle of 'free for the vaccinated, paid for by the unvaccinated', was agreed to. The spread of the pandemic was prevented thanks to PCR tests.
The decision is unenforceable from an economic point of view. At a time like this if a state is not with its people, when would it be?
The decision will also create health problems. Not everyone can find the money for testing. The pandemic will then spread. It is not possible for us to approve this in terms of health. We were never consulted.”

I joined up with the main Plandemic Group Zoom meeting last night. I was introduced but just listened as it was the just the main founders (6) discussing the last demo on Saturday and reviewing what they could do better. They have no doctors on board sadly, though a dentist is a founder member. They also decided not to use the word demo but rather 'a walk' for better psychological public reception.
Tomorrow night I am attending an actual meeting that will include socializing, thankfully - as have so missed that aspect for months!. No masks or tests required and no Covid talk after the meeting lol
