Poland could announce tougher restrictions on Saturday to curb the spread of the coronavirus pandemic after it reported record infections for the fifth consecutive day with 5,300 new cases, according to health ministry data.
New restrictions announced earlier this week, including wearing masks outside at all times, went into effect on Saturday and Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki is expected to announce further limits on schools on Saturday afternoon, Reuters reported.
Morawiecki has not ruled out introducing a state of emergency if case numbers continue to climb.
