At a meeting of the Saare County crisis unit on Sunday, a decision was made to suspend adult and youth hobby activities in Saare County for the next two weeks.
Saare County mayor Mikk Tuisk said that indicators of the spread of the coronavirus in Saaremaa have increased over the last weeks, primarily affected by adult hobby activities and gatherings.
For that reason, the municipality government has decided to suspend adult and youth hobby activity in the region for the next two weeks. A respective request will also be presented to other hobby education organizers across the island and a request will also be made to celebrate the upcoming Independence Day (February 24) outdoors.
