PM Babis does not rule out lockdown of Czechia

The Czech government may be forced to introduce further restrictions to fight coronavirus epidemic unless everybody observes the current rules, Prime Minister Andrej Babis (ANO) said and did not rule out a lockdown or a complete halting of Czech economy. He noted that he had ruled it out some time ago. "But the lives of our fellow citizens are really at stake now," he pointed out. The Czech Republic was on lockdown in the spring after the epidemic outbreak in the country.
