In Slovenia, non-essential shops, restaurants and hotels, as well as beauty and hairdressing salons and, with some exceptions, kindergartens and dormitories, were closed for a week. A night curfew came into effect on Tuesday and, starting Monday, educational institutions switched to digital education with the export of lower grades in primary schools.

Krunoslav Capak, director of the Croatian Institute of Public Health (HZJZ), told a press conference that no new restrictions will be introduced, but existing ones will be tightened. Here he mentioned a further reduction in working hours and a reduction in the upper limit for the number of participants in meetings. He stressed that the number of contagion cases would not increase so much if everyone complied with the regulations, but many are not willing to know about them.
