Prime Minister Janez Janša made a video address to Slovenia this evening. He said that life would come first and the economy second in the fight against the Coronavirus pandemic.

He also stated that the public had to help those on the front line, in healthcare, in a show of solidarity by acting responsibly themselves in order to keep the spread of the virus to manageable levels.

He discussed upcoming financial packages and the fact that a difficult period of cold weather was upon us before a vaccine would be created, hence the need to be extra careful in our actions.
