ZAGREB, Nov 19, 2020 - Interior Minister Davor Bozinovic, who heads the national COVID-19 response team, said on Thursday that additional epidemiological measures would be imposed at national level if the number of daily coronavirus infections continued to grow.
"As we have announced, if the numbers continue to grow this week, we have to do all we can to maintain the functioning of the heatlhcare and hospital system," Bozinovic said at a cabinet meeting.
Over the past week, the national COVID-19 response team has ordered additional epidemiological measures for 10 counties, which now have tighter restrictions than those at national level.
In the last week inspectors inspected over 17,800 businesses, hospitality establishments, clubs and public gatherings issuing 723 warnings and 20 infringement warrants in the total amount of HRK 600,000 (€80,000), Bozinovic said.
