Polish government says some children to go back to school from Jan 18

Polish children in the first three years of primary school will return to normal lessons from Jan. 18, Poland's health minister said on Monday, but other COVID-19 restrictions such as the closure of hotels and many shops will remain in place.

"From Jan. 18 we decided to maintain all additional restrictions apart from starting on-site teaching in grades 1-3 in primary school," Adam Niedzielski told a news conference.
