Because of the deteriorating epidemic situation, especially in the seaside resorts, the Ministry of Education and Science has stopped accepting applications for free seaside vacations for students. More than 2,500 students are scheduled to have holidays over the next few weeks. The Ministry of Education and Science expects instructions from the Ministry of Health for the safety in student camps. Over 7.5 million euros from the state budget are provided under the "Together Again" program to support tourism. The money provides summer vacations for 30,000 children and teaching staff.
