The head of the Croatian Public Health Institute (HZJZ), Krunoslav Capak, said on Tuesday that the relaxation of epidemiological restrictions was being considered and that a decision to that effect could be made in the next 24 to 48 hours.

A possible relaxation of the current epidemiological rules would refer to the number of people allowed at public gatherings, working hours for bars and restaurants, and self-isolation for kindergarten-age children, Capak said in an interview with Nova TV.
