Slovenia enters third pandemic lockdown

Ljubljana, 1 April - Slovenia is going into its third lockdown in just over a year on Thursday, as it wants to buy time for vaccination and stem the third wave of the coronavirus pandemic, driven by the highly virulent British variant. The lockdown is planned until 11 April, with the exception of Easter Sunday, when up to two households will be able to socialise.
