We deem the draft amendment to the State of Emergency Act to be a very serious violation of personal data protection rules, respect for privacy of personal and family life, freedom of communications and privacy rights. Therefore, we demand it be pulled from the Parliament’s agenda. At the same time, we urge the Government to invest all possible resources and efforts to contact persons thought to be infected with the virus and to enforce their isolation. We also ask that it increase medical testing for the population, which is the most effective way to detect new cases of the illness in a timely manner.
