Croatia has said that wearing face masks will be obligatory in most closed public spaces from next week as the number of Covid-19 cases keeps rising, Reuters reports.
The number of new infections reached 140 today, the highest recorded so far in a single day. Most cases are in the capital Zagreb and in east of the country.
The national civil protection directorate said that from Monday face masks will be obligatory for both employees and clients in shops, and also for employees in bars, restaurants and other places where there is close contact with customers.
The use of face masks on public transport was made compulsory several weeks ago.
