The new measures will take effect on Wednesday. “On Monday morning we have a tripartite, we will discuss what needs to be done. Unlike the first wave, we want to specifically target the measures and solve the main problem,” said Prime Minister Babiš.
Stricter restrictions are primarily intended to meet people. The government wants to limit this as much as possible in order to slow down the spread of coronavirus infection.
In the previous days, Babiš also mentioned the so-called lockdown, ie a complete curfew, with the exception of the purchase of food and work. It is not yet clear how drastic the reduction in clustering will be.
“The measures that the government will decide tomorrow will be more or less targeted. We want to find a balance between the protection of lives and our economy. Let’s take it seriously, the situation is serious throughout Europe. I am convinced that “Together, even now. We must be tolerant of each other,” the prime minister continued.
The Czechia has over 52,000 active cases of coronavirus infection and more than two thousand hospitalized. Since the beginning of the epidemic, 948 infected people have died.
“Because of the first wave, we had to fundamentally support self-employed people and others, it cost us 200 billion. We can no longer afford such a huge financial injection,” he added.
He also mentioned Friday’s drinking in the streets of larger cities, where they moved after the closure of pubs and bars at 8 p.m. “I hope that those who are trying for some open resistance will think about it and understand that if they now deny themselves a way of life for a few weeks, then we can all return to normal,” Babiš concluded.
