EU back in lockdown

Unread post by AHE »

Israel became the first country globally to reimpose a nationwide lockdown to stem COVID-19 infections when it ordered much of the economy and all schools to close on September 18.

Last week the Spanish capital of Madrid was put under an official state of emergency, banning non-essential travel in and out of the city. Italy and Poland have made it compulsory for people to wear masks in public places, and France has put Paris and several other cities on maximum alert

Germany, which still has a relatively low national infection rate compared to its neighbors, has also announced new restrictions on hospitality businesses in some regions.

In Northern Ireland, the business closures and restrictions will last a month, while the usual one week half-term school break at the end of October will be extended by another week.

The Netherlands was headed into "partial lockdown" from Wednesday evening to curb one of Europe's most rapid coronavirus surges, with all bars, cafes and restaurants to close.

After long refusing to order the wearing of masks, Rutte finally said that non-medical face coverings must be worn in all public indoor spaces by people aged over 13.

Schools, bars and clubs in the Czech Republic have been told to close their doors. Restaurants will only be allowed to operate for delivery and takeout, and only until 8 p.m. The new lockdown rules began Wednesday and were to last for three weeks, until November 3.
