From next Saturday (November 28), shopping facilities (shops and shopping malls) will be able to operate, but only in the highest sanitary regime. Catering establishments (only take-away sales are allowed), cultural events, cinemas, theaters, gyms and fitness clubs will still be closed. This state is expected to last until December 27, 2020.

There will be a limit of people in shops and shopping malls - a maximum of 1 person on 15 m2. Customers will be required to cover their nose and mouth and disinfect their hands or use protective gloves during all purchases.

The winter break will last from January 4 to January 17. However, this year's holiday will be different from the others. Children and youth will stay at home due to the prohibition of organizing trips for winter holidays.

The tourism industry and entrepreneurs who operate in the winter tourism industry will receive compensation to help alleviate the effects of the crisis.
