Rutte consults at Catshuis about rapid increase in infections | Inland

Since then, the number of infections has increased rapidly. More than 10,000 positive tests have been reported per day. If the infection rate does not decrease, additional steps will be required. All scenarios for this are on the table, says Rutte.

But possible effects of the partial lockdown can only be seen during the course of this week, according to the government. The prime minister pointed out on Friday that the first full day that the new measures were in effect was two days after the announcement.

Press conference

This week, the cabinet will take stock of the results of the partial lockdown. It is not yet certain whether there will be another press conference by Rutte and Corona Minister Hugo de Jonge on Tuesday evening. It may be a few days later.
