The number of infected people in Slovakia has jumped by leaps and bounds, and the country is preparing further measures – ČT24 – Czech Television

In Slovakia, especially this week, the number of confirmed cases of coronavirus infection increased sharply, exceeding the limit of 1000 detected cases of the country on Wednesday.

“Measures will be significantly tightening, we must defend ourselves. We are in a difficult time. With regard to the incubation period, it is clear that the numbers will increase in the coming days and probably weeks, “said Matovič after the meeting of the pandemic commission. He urged residents to wear a veil everywhere and in every situation.

We can go the route of the Czech Republic, if not worse, warns the hygienist

Chief Hygienist Ján Mikas added that the country has no choice. “We will present the measures to the Central Crisis Staff with a great request to all citizens of the Slovak Republic to comply with the measures. Without this, these measures will have no effect and we can go the way of the Czech Republic, if not worse, “said Mikas in response to the development of the disease in the Czech Republic, which has the most cases per capita in the EU in 14 days.

“For the tenth day, stricter measures have been in place because of which many hate me, but nevertheless the number of new cases is rising sharply. Yes, it takes some time for the measure to take effect. Even today, however, the measures taken appear to go to an elephant with an air rifle, “Matovič wrote on the social network in the morning.

At the beginning of October, Slovakia declared a state of emergency due to coronavirus, introduced the mandatory wearing of veils outdoors, restricted the holding of mass events and banned some of them, such as discos, celebrations and wedding receptions.

In Slovakia, 18,797 people have been infected since the beginning of the pandemic, 61 of whom have already died with coronavirus.
