The situation concerning coronavirus in Slovakia has slightly improved in the past seven days, with the growth curve being broken now and the number of people in hospital with COVID-19 being something above 4,000, said Health Minister Marek Krajčí (OLANO) at a press conference on Tuesday. The number of daily deaths related to COVID-19 is slightly above 100. The reproduction number is around 0.95-1. "There's an expectation of a gradual improvement of the epidemic situation," he said, adding that this is due to the observance of anti-covid measures by the public and ongoing vaccination.
At the same time, Krajčí stated that in the case of difficulties with registration for COVID-19 testing via the korona.gov.sk webpage, people can come to testing sites anyway and healthcare professionals should be able to perform the testing.
