  1. The regulations were made to slow down the spread of the virus. Keep in mind we are a small country and our capcities are very limited. our chances of fighting with such pandemic like this one are basically around zero. we usually have to rely in many things on the help of other countries (allies or neighbors). but since our allies were this time affected by this pandemic as well and have their own problems, we had to do the only one thing we can to partially stop the spread and protect the population, as one of the very first countries in the continent we immediately closed borders, airports, banned international traffic, banned foreigners to enter the country, closed all schools, banned all religious and cultural events (masses, concerts), closed shops, ordered wearing protective masks etc ... maaaan, without this. trust me we would be already done..no one would be able to control the situation anymore. Obviously, nobody knows what will happen in a month or two..but the main goal was and is to slow down the current spread in the country
  2. Well that varies individually from case to case obviously. I saw many peoples saying they want to return home, because in the country they are working, studying etc...nothing (or very few basic regulations) is done and they don´t feel safe like this student who said the locals don´t take it seriously, even the students had to force the closure of the school only by petition. He experienced his first real epidemiologic control only at the Austrian-Slovak border https://www.webnoviny.sk/slovensky-student-v-holandsku-holandania-na-to-kaslu-zatvorenie-skoly-sme-si-museli-vynutit-peticiou/ but there obviously also peoples that still want to stay in the Netherlands like this grl (Scroll down until - Veronika, Groningen (Holandsko)) https://pelipecky.sk/slovaci-v-zahranici-koronavirus-rozhovor/ She is living 8 months in and first time she even heard that it may be something big and dangerous was when she arrived to Slovakia for the last elections 29th February, until then there were almost no mention about it in the Netherlands. and still no one is panicking there and any radical measures are not considered - for now, but she added, this is pretty normal, as she knows the dutch peoples, they are too calm peoples who will not stop to go to restaurants or pizzerias in the town even if a genocide will start there ) and she said she will stay in Groningen especially because she got a job offer in Amsterdam where she will move in May
  3. Something you don´t see often I guess... Slovak citizens living in Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium who asked our government to return home, officially : because "they do not feel safe in these countries actually and prefer stay in Slovakia" were repatriated by the state to Slovakia in the past hours by special buses and are placed in mandatory 14 days quarantine where they will wait for tests and now the thing.. in these 3 special hotels in the Tatras (belonging to the state) !!! They will pay only 13 euros for daily meals everything else is for free !. Anyone who will have a negative test will be send to home quarantine TV news Video shot here https://www.ta3.com/clanok/1179087/repatrianti-zaplnaju-karantenne-zariadenia-su-aj-vo-vysokych-tatrach.html
  4. Unreal times we are living. Scary video from the Capital of Slovakia Bratislava past Friday. Last work day of the week when usually hundreds of thousands peoples travels home from their work or go to spend the weekend somewhere, the day when the roads are crowded with cars... but this Friday Almost no movement, no sign of a single smal traffic jam. Empty street. minimum cars. crazy, insane..
  5. It´s impossible to avoid. Basically every while various short alerts, announcements or state notices are broadcasted on all radios and televisions. There are notices about measures and how you should act everywhere. Cities and streets are empty, and the few people you can meet have masks. it is basically impossible to avoid it. you feel it everywhere.
