"According to the latest information, we have nine new confirmed cases in Croatia, bringing the total to 315. A total of 2757 tests have been conducted and we are still waiting for the results of 33 tests," Health Minister Vili Beros said.
The condition of previously hospitalised patients has not deteriorated and at the moment five patients are on ventilators, he added.
Also, 15 specialists working in hospitals have been diagnosed with COVID19.
Beros said that an inspection had been conducted of the Daruvar spa after the media reported that a lot of people were gathered there, including elderly persons.
"There are no cases in the Daruvar spa, there are no positive cases and County Prefect Damir Bajs was absolutely justified in replacing the director of the spa after she allowed the hospitality facilities within the complex to remain open, which is in contravention of the recommendations issued by the national authority. Hence we consider that that decision was absolutely justified," concluded Beros.
