“Conflicts were rare, most often we dealt with the announcement that the guests moved to the sidewalk in front of it after the bar closed. However, this did not violate the ordered measures, as well as the operators who continued to provide their services through the dispensing window,” she added.

After 8 pm, establishments can only sell snacks outside, ie from the dispensing windows. If people stay on the sidewalks to continue drinking alcohol in the evening, they violate the measures if they do not keep their distance.

He supported them with photographs from the center of Prague, in which people gather in front of the facilities at night. According to him, they underestimate the situation.
