Some stores may reopen
The government will decide next week whether some shops and banks can reopen, such as shops that sell telephones and electrical appliances, hair salons and convenience stores. Hairdressers and their customers are then obliged to wear a face mask. Customers must sanitize their hands, all scissors and such must be sanitized for each customer, and chairs must be spaced apart. Only cutting is allowed, the customers have to wait outside.
Other stores will be allowed to open if they can limit the number of customers inside. Promotional activities are not allowed.
