Pubs for HN: Dušičky will still be free. In the game, however, there is a lockdown at Christmas – HNonline.sk

There was an online council of experts on Sunday. What does it look like in Slovakia?
Currently, the situation is characterized by an increase in the percentage of positive tests. It looks like we have 2,000 to 2,500 a day, which has stabilized, but our percentage is growing. It worries us. And the second thing is that we have almost a thousand occupied covid beds and the number of dead and serious conditions is increasing. We partly expected it, but partly not. We hoped that the vaccination rate would be higher – between 50 and 60 percent. Plus we are worried about matches where there is close contact. The numbers are growing a little faster than we expected. We assume that the automaton is still functional, but that we will reconsider it.

So will you limit your mobility next week to Dušičky or Christmas?
I don’t think it will be necessary for Dušičky, because it won’t be so bad. The deterioration is gradual, so I do not expect the restriction to be the same as last year. As for Christmas, I also don’t think, because it’s hard to get through politically. And here politics will win, so if they behave as just before the election, there will be no restriction. However, if we find that the occupancy of hospitals and the number of deaths are such that it will start to hinder people, then then the pressure may be greater than the fear of disagreement. And there may be a step between Christmas and New Year that will limit travel or gatherings.

When you say it can happen, is that your advice or idea?
