May 10, 2020 – While we were patiently waiting for the measures to be eased, we asked Croats about their plans on the first day with a bit more freedom.
After almost two months of strict measures that limited our freedom of leaving our homes or the county, today there was a decision to eliminate e-passes, except for Brač, where, according to the decision, there is still ban on movement and gathering. Thus, on Brač, the measures from before April 27 are applied. Here is the link about the situation on Brač.
We asked Croats how they are planning to spend the very first day with new, eased measures and gathered 311 responses.
The first statement was, “I’ll go to the cafe for coffee,” and surprisingly, for a nation who loves enjoying the sun on the terrace while drinking coffee with friends, just 52,2% said yes.
They are even less ready to leave their county, with a total of 55% negative answers.
But, when it comes to visiting friends, here, the “yes” answer confidently wins with a total of 71,4%.
The caution when it comes to shopping is still here – 70,4% of people said they wouldn’t go to shopping centers.
A little less than half of the people answered that they wouldn’t stay home, which, after almost two months without that luxury, is understandable.
In the last statement, Croats showed responsibility once more – a total of 82,3% of people steal the show.
A little reminder for everyone: from tomorrow, gatherings of 40 people will be allowed, and e-passes are eliminated. Still, we are called to act responsibly.
