Olen siksi ollut kausiflunssan takia kotona eilisestä lähtien ja olen poissa myös huomenna. Hoidan välttämättömät asiat puhelimitse ja yritän levätä flunssan pois. Valitettavasti myös huominen #kyselytunti jää väliin.
Also, the Finnish Parliament will end its guided visits to the Parliament House for the time being.
MPs and officials may cancel foreign travel already acquired if the purpose of the trip is endangered by the risk of coronavirus (koronavirus, in Finnish) infection.
In addition, MPs have been advised to avoid shaking hands, and the parliamentary health station has reminded MPs of washing their hands.
