For this case several TV operators here have made pay-TV available to people by April for free, so many people just sit in front of their TV

First infected doctor(s) in Croatia. This means the state of alert will be raised again.

 

Not unexpected. I guess we got lucky that our doctors got infected quite late compared to some other European nations.

Work from home isn't really possible for me  I either work (at the location) or don't work

Also, looks like the district where I lived is still bustling as usual despite the positive case. I helped my mother at the shop today and most people are just making fun of the virus by greetings like "Hey, how come you are still open?" or "Why are you selling things, just stay at home!".

 

 

The only difference is many people wearing masks from all sorts: a piece of cloth, cheap cotton masks, surgical masks, N95s, or even the Pitta mask which actually make yourself look trendier instead of preventing virus.

I spotted my first mask out in the wild Friday morning at the train station (I was not very surprised it was an Asian-looking lady), but that's still the only one since this whole thing started

Wouldn't it be better if some are infected at an early stage with the least pressure? Then those could be cured when/if shit hits the fan.

Well, except for those two doctors now, so far there is still no evidence of local transmission in Croatia.

 

(all cases are either people coming from abroad or their close family)

With 1100+ cases (and 6000+ more likely), we're finally joining the other countries: all eating/drinking establishments will be closed from 18:00 on and remain closed until at least 6 April, all other precautions have been extended to 6 April.
