Czech COVID-19 cases soar to highest since April, prompting new measures
The Peninsula
The Czech government will force restaurants to check patrons' COVID-19 status, among other measures it decided on Wednesday, to stem a spike in infections that is the highest since April.
The Czech Republic, like other countries in central and eastern Europe where vaccination rates are below the European Union average, is looking to keep a new wave of coronavirus cases well below peaks seen earlier in 2021.
Two-thirds of adults in the country of 10.7 million are fully vaccinated, below an EU average of 74%, and health and government officials have said the vast majority of new cases involve the unvaccinated.
