Bratislava schools open despite “red” on Covid-traffic light

Despite the fact that Bratislava has been declared a red zone, schools will open their doors for pupils on September 2. According to Education Minister Branislav Grohling (SaS), should there be any change, they will inform about it in advance. Earlier this week, due to the rising number of positive cases, Bratislava applied stricter measures to all events and activities that require the gathering of a larger number of people. As Grohling went on to say, wearing a face mask is the "absolute minimum" that people can do in order for teaching to continue.
