From May 18, hairdressers, cosmetics and all such facilities will be able to operate back, which will be described in detail in the regulation, as announced Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki on Wednesday, presenting the next stage of lifting the restrictions associated with the coronavirus epidemic.
‘I appeal for strict adherence to sanitary rules, there can be no active waiting rooms in hairdressers or cosmetics, let's make an appointment for a specific time, for a specific visit;” Minister of Health Łukasz Szumowski added.
He also pointed to the principles of maintaining safety: the need to wear masks or helmets in beauty salons and in gastronomy, as well as maintaining distance between people, including sitting at tables in restaurants.
The Ministry of Health informed about a record number of new infections – 595 (including 492 in Silesia).
