01:20 PM When the new coronavirus occurred, in NIJZ prepared the instructions and all the necessary forms for the health care professionals, and the epidemiologists. They will adjust the instructions as the events will develop, and publish them on the website of the institute. The protocols also include specifics for each hospital and health centre.

11:00 AM Public institutions in Slovenia have started taking precautionary measures to protect staff against coronavirus infections after first cases of the virus were confirmed in neighbouring Italy, Austria and Croatia.
