CONTEXT:

During the Covid-19 outbreak in the spring, an emergency situation was declared in Latvia to control the new coronavirus. The situation was stable in the summer, but the morbidity at the end of September fast increased. The government re-established the state of emergency that existed stricter restrictions. Despite this, the incidence of Covid-19 did not stop increasing.

Government on 1 December decided to extend emergency by 11 January. Restrictions are as strict as in spring – the “2 + 2” principle must be followed. This means that only two people from different households can meet, within a distance of two meters.
