The Municipal Court annulled an extraordinary measure by which the Ministry of Health extended the obligation to wear face masks in the Czech Republic from October 21.
The temporary field hospital at Prague Exhibition Center in Letňany was meant to care for any overflow of patients suffering from severe COVID-19 symptoms. One month later, not one single patient has been admitted, Česká televize reports. The lease of the space has so far cost 26 million CZK. The contract expires at the end of November, but the Ministry of Health still has to decide whether or not to extend it. The 500-bed hospital was constructed by the Czech Army in October, as a hurried response to the rapidly rising number of Covid-19 cases. Interior Minister Jan Hamacek organised the construction, while Prime Minister Andrej Babiš said it was necessary to build extra capacity amid predicitons that Prague’s healthcare system would be overwhelmed. The state also purchased 4,000 beds from hospital and nursing bed maker LINET. Bulovka Hospital, which is responsible for the field hospital’s operation, is waiting for the Ministry’s decision. “The hospital has not been activated yet and the epidemiological development does not even suggest that it should be any different,” hospital spokeswoman Mirka Kátriková said to Novinky.cz.

Every supermarket, food shop, and store must allow at least 15 square-meters per person so that customers can practice “social distancing”. This means that supermarkets must control how many people are in the space at any given time. The Czech government has approved a restriction on the number of customers inside stores, which will come into effect from Wednesday. Only one person per 15 square meters will be allowed. “Based on the current measure, people already have to keep a distance of two meters, so there will be no fatal changes. But it is true that it is different than as originally approved by the government resolution,” said Minister of Industry Karel Havlíček (ANO) to Radiožurnál. The president of the Trade and Tourism Association, Tomáš Prouza, criticized the new restriction. “The change will cause a concentration of people in front of the stores,” he claims.

Czech military intelligence warns of growing tensions between the “leading” countries that could lead to World War III. This is stated in the intelligence report for 2019, Lidové noviny reports. According to analysts, an unusually intense conflict is forming on the worldwide level, and it could erupt due to growing tensions between the “big” powers. Army spies claim that the world is in the first phase of World War III. It is noted that now the global conflict “is at the first stage.” “The worldview of those who can and wish to actively participate in it [the conflict] is being formed, and the technological tools with which it could be controlled are gradually being determined,” the authors of the report say. According to analysts, a possible cause of the conflict is the rivalry between the United States, Russia and China. The document also talks about the decline in the importance of international law due to the lack of a peaceful dialogue as a way to resolve contradictions. The authors of the report emphasize that the manipulation of public consciousness also contributes to the growth of tension. Propaganda is playing a big role: “manipulated thinking, biased conclusions and the absence of a sense of...
Lucia Janovcová and Korena Flanagan have no problem giving Covid the finger. The two marketing and communication specialists launched a service to provide free advice for businesses impacted by the pandemic. To make the message crystal clear – they called it F_CK COVID. “We called it fuckcovid because that really is how everyone is feeling – especially if you have your own business,” co-founder Lucia Janovcová explained. Once small businesses register for free, they’ll have access to a remote marketing and communications session, help getting started on a plan, and be featured on the site’s Buy Local page. The pair want to provide fresh ideas for businesses struggling to manage this uncertainty to give them back some control. Janovcová said the idea came from the frustration of isolation: “Like everyone we are sick of this disease. We are sick of being locked up and we are sick of people not wearing masks and washing their hands,” she said. “We had a choice – get angry on the couch or do something to help. So we started this service. Janovcová said she often gets asked why they are offering the service for free. “The answer is pretty simple – to give...

According to the young scientist, NATO brings peace and security to member countries. “It provides us all with a relatively safe and peaceful life, but that means we also have our responsibilities.
