The National Security Council of 27 March, which was extended to include the Ministers-President, decided to extend the measures taken earlier by two weeks, i.e. until 19 April. After that, they can then be extended a further two weeks, i.e. until 3 May. In any case, the situation will be monitored constantly. The National Security Council will meet regularly for this purpose.
As a reminder, details of the measures are available on the website www.info-coronavirus.be(link is external).
We would still like to make a few clarifications:
As always, the decisions are based on recommendations of the scientific experts, who met earlier today.
Violations will be punished. In addition, we will soon introduce a system for the immediate collection of fines.
Everyone has an individual and collective responsibility to comply with these decisions, which we know are difficult. We welcome the commitment, solidarity and responsibility of every Belgian citizen. Everyone knows that these measures are essential for our health. We are also grateful for the work done by medical staff. Their daily commitment is special and praiseworthy, and all the country's governments are doing their utmost to protect them. Finally, the commitment of everyone who is keeping the country running on a daily basis is also fundamental. We also want to thank them.
