The existing coronavirus restrictions have been extended following the government session last night.
This goes for the bans on gatherings and movement between municipalities, the 9pm-6am curfew, and the suspension of public transport and closure of non-essential stores.
Meanwhile, masks will now be mandatory, not just surgical but also washable cloth masks, as loose nose and mouth coverings, such as scarves or bandannas, are no longer considered sufficient.
Thus, the restrictions might change on Saturday after consultations with hospital directors and representatives of health institutions and businesses, the government's covid-19 spokesperson Jelko Kacin said, and added that they will also discuss healthcare investments for the coming years.
