SARAJEVO, April 3 (FENA) - Chief of the FBiH Civil Protection Service, Fahrudin Solak says they do not plan to impose full quarantine for residents of the Federation of BiH, and that new changes to the orders concerning the movement of persons under 18 years of age and those older than 65 have been adopted at a session of the staff today.

He pointed out that the payment of pensions will start in FBiH next week and that those older than 65 will be able to move freely outside in the period from 08.00 to 12.00 hrs.

"We ask all other citizens to reduce their outdoor movement during this period," said Solak.

Speaking about the freedom of movement of persons under 18 years of age, Solak said the orders have been modified so that all minors will be able to trave in vehicles with their parents from one location to another.

He also emphasized that appliances stores would start working as a large number of citizens complained that they had nowhere to repair or buy a home appliance.

Solak pointed out that they have sent a decision to the FBiH Ministry of Health to consider the Decision on a 28-day quarantine at the Bjelave Student Housing in case of negative coronavirus test results for students who came back from Italy and allow them to go into 14 days home isolation.

"A complete ban on movement is an extreme measure, and if no other measure prevents the spread of the infection, it will be the last measure we would have to impose," Solak concluded in his address.
