As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, the current epidemiological measures in the City of Zagreb will remain in force until the end of March, as was announced on the official website for coronavirus in Croatia (koronavirus.hr), and, among other things, the control of spontaneous Zagreb gatherings in public will be tightened up once again.
At the proposal of the Civil Protection Directorate of the City of Zagreb, some more new epidemiological measures for the area of the City of Zagreb are being introduced. The necessary epidemiological measures referred to in this Decision shall be determined until the 31st of March 2021.
The new epidemiological measures, which still include many of the old rules, are as follows:
– The mandatory use of face masks or medical/surgical masks in all enclosed spaces where public or economic activities are performed, as well as at events, cultural or other programmes, religious and at other social gatherings, if it isn´t possible to maintain a physical distance of at least two metres between people.
– At all social and public gatherings (events, performances, masses, rituals, sports competitions and other social and public Zagreb gatherings) it is obligatory to adhere to all epidemiological measures at all times, as it is with the instructions and recommendations of the Croatian Institute of Public Health.
– The current recommendation is to increase the number of vehicles (both trams and buses) providing public city transport to whatever extent is possible given the capacities of ZET.
– Intensified monitoring of Zagreb gatherings is set to begin.
– The organisers of social gatherings that are permitted and the owners of catering and hospitality facilities are obliged to control the implementation of all current epidemiological measures at these Zagreb gatherings, ie on the premises of catering and hospitality facilities.
– The enabling of the users of accommodation services which operate within the social welfare system (care homes etc.) to go to see their families for more than five days, with the obligation that they submit a negative test for SARS-CoV-2 and that additional precautions when returning to the service provider (the avoidance of contact with other service users for 14 days or something similar) are implemented.
– Users of accommodation services operating within the social welfare system will be allowed to leave such accommodation and go outside to the external spaces owned by the same service provider (such as out in the garden or on the terrace, etc.) with the obligatory wearing of face masks and full adherence to maintaining a physical distance of at least 1.5 metres from others.
– Visits to users of accommodation providers in the social welfare system are allowed only in/on the external premises of the service provider. The duration of such visits will be limited in time and organised according to a predetermined schedule. Both service users and their visitors are required to wear face masks or medical/surgical masks and maintain a physical distance of at least 1.5 metres at all times.
– Visits to the users of accommodation providers operating within the social welfare system are allowed indoors only when, for objective reasons, the visit cannot be organised outdoors (such as in the case of totally immobile service users). In such cases, the duration of the visit is limited in time and organised according to a predetermined schedule, with the requirement that visitors are required to use face masks or medical/surgical masks, as well as disposable PPE.
– Only users who have had COVID-19 within 90 days of the onset of the disease and service users for whom 14 days have passed since vaccination with the second dose of the coronavirus vaccine are allowed to go inside the premises of an accommodation provider within the social welfare system.
– The restriction of the operation of catering facilities that operate on/as part of the premises of the accommodation service provider in the social welfare system, and which do not have a separate entrance to the premises where the catering service is provided, exclusively for users and employees of the service provider.
– The obligation for tenants of accommodation providers within the social welfare system, who are performing activities that are not currently suspended, to organise their work in such a way as to determine the time when services are available only to users, with mandatory prior disinfection of the premises and all equipment.
