Slovakia health bosses have admitted that the country should be in the Covid orange tier on Europe’s travel map making holidays and business trips a lot easier.
Instead we are stuck in the red!
The Public Health Authority (ÚVZ) admits it has sent the wrong data to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control.
The government body had wrongly calculated the number of cases and positivity rate and sent it to the European Surveillance System..
Hopefully he data will be corrected in the next few days.
The misleading data has had an impact on travelling from Slovakia already. The Czech Republic, for example, sees Slovakia as red and high risk.
It means that travellers from Slovakia have to self-isolate after coming to the Czech Republic and then take a PCR test,
People coming from the orange-tier countries do not have to take a second PCR test or self-isolate at the moments.
