By now, the slogan ”Stay Home/(Ostani(te) Doma)” has become synonymous with the Croatian fight against the coronavirus pandemic. The slogan has been plastered everywhere, along streets, on billboards, and it is even in the right-hand corner of Croatian TV screens on certain channels. As the epidemiological situation continues to become more and more favourable within Croatia’s borders, Interior Minister Bozinovic has announced a brand new slogan.
As Croatia gradually begins to release its stringent anti-epidemic measures in three phases, the Stay Home slogan is gradually losing its meaning, it has now been replaced with a more fitting slogan that we’re sure to see more of in the coming weeks and as the battle with the pandemic continues to unfold.
As Poslovni Dnevnik writes on the 5th of May, 2020, at the end of yesterday’s regular coronavirus press conference held by the National Civil Protection Headquarters, a change of the well known ”Stay Home” slogan was announced by Davor Bozinovic.
The slogan “Stay Home” has been proverbially sent home itself now that the situation in Croatia is looking better and better, and the new motto as the anti-coronavirus measures begin being released and people are no longer obliged to stay at home as much as possible is now “Let’s stay responsible/Ostanimo odgovorni”
“We must not forget all of the instructions of the epidemiologists and the staff [of the National Civil Protection Headquarters], in order for our situation to be good, we must continue to follow all of those instructions, and we should probably start off with a new motto – Let’s stay responsible,” said Minister Bozinovic.
