Government of the Republic of Slovenia

Minister of Health signed an Order imposing a ban on gatherings at events in public places.

The Order bans gatherings of more than 500 people at public events in indoor public places in the Republic if Slovenia. The ban will apply as long as the risk of spread of the contagious SARS-CoV-2 disease (COVID 19) exists. The Order comes into effect today at 7.00 pm. https://www.uradni-list.si/_pdf/2020/Ur/u2020015.pdf

We recommend that due to increased epidemiological risk organisers of events should also consider whether there are grounds to ban other events at which fewer people would gather.
