“We understand that a full lockdown will be a great challenge for Ukraine’s economy, in particular for small and medium-sized businesses. But it is important for us to break the chain of disease transmission. That is why we are initiating the introduction of a strict "weekend" quarantine. This will help reduce the number of contacts between people," – the head of the Ministry of Health said.
The Minister noted that this quarantine is expected to be in force from 00:00 on Saturday to 00:00 on Monday. Only grocery stores, pharmacies, transport, gas stations and veterinary pharmacies will be open. At the same time, the Ministry of Health is initiating the closure of entertainment and shopping centers on weekends, as well as limiting the operation of restaurants to takeaways.
