The Covid-19 pandemic continues to be a severe public health emergency nationally and globally. The prolongation of the epidemic emergency situation related to the spread of Covid-19 on the territory of the country will make it possible to strengthen the implementation of temporary anti-epidemic measures in order to limit the spread of the disease and protect the lives and health of citizens, the decision of the government reads.
