Gov't plans restrictions in Covid-affected provinces

The government plans to introduce new coronavirus restrictions in Poland's eastern provinces where the infection count is the highest, a deputy health minister has said. Speaking to the online portal Wirtualna Polska on Thursday, Waldemar Kraska also said the area would be divided into yellow and green zones, depending on the seriousness of the situation. The heightened restrictions are likely to be introduced in the eastern Lubelskie and Podlaskie provinces and in the eastern counties of the central Mazowieckie province.
