Businesses expect the lockdown to be extended for at least another week

This decision allows us to assess what is happening as a complete failure of the overall strategy of those responsible for vaccination, treatment, and tactics to counter the coronavirus infection. The level of voluntary immunization of the population reflects the general level of trust in the authorities. For business, this can be said to be disastrous.

I think everyone understands that seven “non-working days” will not be able to radically change the epidemiological situation, so their extension is very likely. As for business, support from the state will be, but only for the surviving companies and, of course, for the majority in a volume that is not decisive for the fate. Such programs are developed after introducing restrictive measures, and companies receive the financial assistance specified after lifting restrictions. For example, we received the first loans only six months after the official lifting of the lockdown. In other words, the government helps survivors, not survive.
