“We all see that many countries in Europe and the world are closing for a second strict lockdown. France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, the Czech Republic have already introduced strict restrictions. Even though these are countries with medical systems and resources very powerful. We are not going to follow this path and introduce a blockade for the entire country. But if we see a further deterioration of the situation, then, in fact, this will force the government to resort to tougher restrictions, “stressed the Chief of Staff .
