https://qcostarica.com/ministry-of-heal ... osta-rica/The Ministry of Health ordered, today Sunday, the closure of all bars, clubs, and casinos in Costa Rica, until further notice.
The Government announced, at a press conference, that the police will have the authority to verify that the Health provision is followed. If officers detect open bars, they will close them.
Other meeting places, such as restaurants and cinemas, that do not comply with the order to operate at 50% of their visiting capacity will also be closed.
This last provision also applies to sodas (small eateries) and food courts in commercial centers and malls.
In the case of restaurant bars, they will be allowed to stay open if they limited capacity to 50% stated in their Health permit.
