PRAGUE — The number of new coronavirus cases in the Czech Republic continues to surge.
The day-to-day increase reached 305 on Sunday, the highest number since April 3.
The Czech Republic had a total of 11,604 confirmed cases of the virus through Sunday, including 348 deaths, according to Health Ministry figures.
Because of the increase in cases, Prague, the capital, and a region in the country’s northeast will remain under orders to wear face masks beyond July 1, when the order will be lifted for the rest of the country, Health Minister Adam Vojtech said Monday.
In Prague, it will still be compulsory to wear face coverings on the subway and at indoor public gatherings of more than 100 people.
In the northeastern region, face masks will remain mandatory in indoor public spaces, on public transport and at gatherings of more than 100 people. The outbreak in that region is linked to miners from a coal mine, their relatives and their other contacts.
