ZAGREB, 8 Jan 2022 - As of Monday, the duration of a negative COVID-19 test for entering Slovenia without quarantine will be shorter, according to a government protocol aimed at curbing the spread of the Omicron variant.
The validity of a negative PCR test will thus be 48 hours and that of a rapid antigen test 24 hours.
As of Monday, only persons who have been vaccinated, have recovered from COVID or have a negative test will be able to use public transport.
According to unofficial data, 4,468 coronavirus cases have been confirmed in Slovenia in the last 24 hours, almost 3,000 more than a week ago. Epidemiologists fear the daily new cases could jump to 10,000 due to Omicron.
