WARSAW (Reuters) – Poland will reopen restaurants and hairdressers on May 18 as it begins easing coronavirus-linked restrictions, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said on Wednesday.
“At least to some extent we have contained the epidemic, therefore we can gradually unfreeze the economy,” Morawiecki told news conference, a day after Poland saw its largest spike in coronavirus cases in a single day.
Morawiecki also said that schools would partially reopen to provide day care for children in the first three years of primary school.
