On Friday, all private banks will remain closed due to health time-off for administrative institutions arranged by the national government as a measure to fight the H1N1 A influenza spread.

Considering that Thursday is holiday, Argentine private banks will remain closed until Monday of next week.
On Friday, all national stock markets will also call for a time-off and currency exchange activities will not be run.

Also, the Supreme Court decided to call off all national and federal activities for Friday.

Provincial governments have also echoed the measures taken by certain private administrative institutions and will adhere to the health time-off recommended by the national government.

Since last Monday all theatres have been closed as part of the government's strategic plan to fight the H1N1 A influenza breakout.
