The night-time curfew will be cancelled as of next Monday (January 10), the Health Ministry's spokesperson Zuzana Eliasova announced on Tuesday.
However, all the other measures concerning shops, services, hotels, ski resorts and travel on long-distance buses will remain in place.
The state of emergency, which was declared by the Government for the period of 90 days will also stay in place after January 9. The ban on gatherings of more than six persons (except for members of the same household) won't be lifted, either.
Entering shops, outlets providing services and restaurants will continue to be governed by the Public Health Office's (UVZ) regulations. "Essential shops will continue to operate in the basic mode. Non-essential shops, services and restaurants will only be accessible in the OP mode, which means only to fully vaccinated persons and those who recovered from COVID-19 over the past six months," said Eliasova.
