Meanwhile, restaurants and event organizers are demanding the lifting of restrictions so that they can start organizing activities.
–
In Friday, 1,750 new cases of coronavirus were registered in the last 24 hours, and the number of cases per 100,000 population exceeds 200 in the last 14 days.

A decision will now be taken in mid-April on whether to allow dining at outdoor restaurants and lift restrictions on cultural and sporting activities.
