>> Avoid distributing and exchanging meals between homes and families.
>> Only members of the same family living in the same house can share meals.

According to authorities, all these measures announced are subject to change based on the global and local health situation.
The elderly and people with chronic diseases have been urged to avoid gatherings of any kind, in order to ensure their safety.
