Prime Minister Dr. Omar Al-Razaz chaired a meeting of the National Committee for Epidemic Control. In light of the review and evaluation, decisions have been reached regarding mosques and churches, so that they will reopen their doors according to specific mechanisms and conditions that will be announced by His Excellency the Minister of Endowments and Islamic Affairs and Holy Places, and the Chairman of the Council of Church Presidents shortly. A specific mechanism and requirements related to public safety and prevention have been reached to reopen the halls of restaurants and cafes, which will be announced by His Excellency the Minister of Tourism and Antiquities. In addition, new decisions have been reached regarding school and university attendance, and the Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research and the Minister of Education will announce them, respectively. We confirm here that adherence to the procedures, conditions and standards that have been set is the main determinant of reopening any establishment or entity. The government will intensify oversight, tighten it, and toughen penalties for non-compliant actors. Prime Minister Dr. Omar Al-Razaz today issued Defense Order No. (17) of 2020 AD, according to which Defense Orders No. (8) and (16) were amended to increase the penalties for anyone who violates the obligations or measures imposed by the competent authorities, The penalties amount to a fine of not less than five hundred dinars, and not more than one thousand dinars if the violation is for the first time, and with imprisonment for a period not exceeding one year or a fine of not less than one thousand dinars and not more than three thousand dinars, or both of these penalties in case of repetition. Also punishable by imprisonment of up to one year, or a fine of three thousand dinars, or with both of these penalties, those in charge of managing hospitals, health centers, or medical laboratories. This is in the event that the competent authorities are not informed of the cases that prove her infection with the Coronavirus, Closing any of them for a period not exceeding fourteen days if it is proven that the violation is repeated. The application of any penalty pursuant to this defense order does not preclude the application of any more severe punishment, as stipulated in any other legislation. Whoever holds a gathering in contravention of one thousand dinars and not more than three thousand dinars, if the violation is for the first time, and with imprisonment from three months to a year, or a fine of not less than two thousand dinars and not exceeding three thousand dinars, or both of these The two penalties in case of repetition. Anyone who submits an incorrect PCR result with the intent to mislead the competent authorities shall be punished by imprisonment for up to one year, or with a fine of three thousand dinars, or with both of these penalties. The relevant minister may publish the names of facilities that are closed according to any of the defense orders. The control and inspection teams monitor the commitment of the facilities on a daily basis. Inspection teams at the Ministry of Industry and Trade committed violations yesterday and today at 171 establishments in all governorates of the Kingdom, and the monitoring and inspection campaigns will be intensified continuously. This situation does not only apply to private establishments. Rather, the control teams from the Audit Bureau, the internal control units, and the mystery shopper follow up the extent of commitment in government institutions and departments, and (30) government agencies and institutions have been violated during the past two days. In light of the developments in the epidemiological situation, the home quarantine instructions for those coming from countries and destinations classified (red) have been modified to make the period of quarantine fourteen days instead of seven days, in addition to conducting examinations for those coming from them on the seventh and fourteenth days. The Ministry of Transport and Health also announced an updated list of countries and destinations from which Jordan receives travelers, which will be approved as of today, Wednesday, 9/30/2020, for a period of two weeks from its date. In light of the increasing numbers of infections, and within the policies and protocols to contain the Corona epidemic, we confirm that quarantine and home isolation will be adopted as a basis for dealing with those infected or suspected of being infected with the Coronavirus during the next week, The work procedures are currently being reviewed in cooperation between the various stakeholders, and the necessary digital infrastructure for implementation and follow-up of the quarantined and isolated people is being completed through it. The official and scientific health references confirm that we are in the event of a societal spread of the Corona epidemic infection; Consequently, prevention is no longer an option, but rather a decision, a duty, and a moral and humanitarian responsibility. The commitment to wearing a muzzle, physical distancing, hand washing and sterilization is not an option or a luxury, but has become a duty, and it is the way to ensure our success in adapting and coexisting with the epidemic. Our ability to withstand corona injuries is not open, but rather limited by the capacity of our health system. Our ability to continue opening most sectors and activities is also not open, but rather determined by the number of injuries and the capacity of our health system. It is the duty of every person who is keen on continuing the work of his facility, and going to places of worship, or places of work and shopping, to adhere to the means of complete prevention: muzzle, spacing, and sterilization. If all of us are not able to raise the levels of commitment to prevention, we will witness a dangerous and significant acceleration in the number of cases at a rate that our health system may not be able to deal with and contain, a situation that may impose a return to implement closures and prohibitions to protect the health of society. No one wants it. Neither the government, nor the individuals nor the business owners; But recklessness and lack of commitment may push us to difficult choices against all of us. In this context, I note the importance of continuing to use the "Aman" application and the "Sehhatak" application; These applications constitute a basic effort in the awareness process and in supporting the efforts of epidemiological investigation teams I also refer to the importance of family awareness in prevention and commitment, as the family is the basic nucleus of the commitment of the entire society. From here, I direct all female colleagues and colleagues in the media to take the initiative to intensify awareness-raising messages on the means of prevention and protection, in order to create with you a continuous state of awareness and commitment to protect our society and our economy from the repercussions of this epidemic. May God protect you, protect your health and your loved ones, protect the nation, its leadership, and all of humanity from the evil of this epidemic.
