“Decisions that are in force refer to working hours until midnight. It’s only the 10th of December today… the response team is considering all the possibilities and we won’t wait until the eleventh hour but at the moment I would not like to say anything that might be interpreted as a decision or stance,” Božinović said after a cabinet meeting.
“You know the rules of the game – if the current decline in the number of infections continues, I do not see any reason why, with some possible recommendations, something could not be allowed for that evening,” he added.
Božinović added that one could not forecast how much the Omicron variant, which spreads quickly, would spread.
“A lot is still unknown. Everyone is following the situation in South Africa (…) the experts there are analysing that variant and we all depend on those results, from governments to vaccine producers,” he said.
