Coronavirus infections are increasing in the country. The second wave appeared to be relatively terrifying compared to the first. Therefore, the government has to close everything one by one. Resorts have already been closed in different parts of the country. Advance reservations at hotels and motels are being canceled. In addition, new reservations have also been announced. In addition, the movement of people after dark has been restricted. Elsewhere, the opening of businesses other than drug and commodity stores and markets has been banned. Most of these instructions come from the local administration. The ban will last from Thursday until mid-April. There are also warnings to take strict legal action if the administration’s decision is disobeyed. Previously, since March 26 last year, several institutions, including the country’s tourist centers, were the first to close. After closure, many institutions were closed for approximately 5 months.
According to the interested party, the Prime Minister’s Office has issued a 16-point circular on the recommendation of the health department to prevent corona infection. Basically all the steps mentioned are being taken after that. The National Zoo and Rangpur Zoo were declared closed on Friday. Cox’s Bazar Beach was declared closed the night before. Visits to the island of Saint Martin have been suspended since Thursday morning. On the other hand, the port city of Chittagong has entered the blockade stage.

Passengers from 12 countries, including Europe, were banned from entering the country on Thursday due to the dire situation. Bangladesh Bank has stopped inspecting several banks and financial institutions. For the same reason, previously the license from the educational institution was extended for two and a quarter months. Similarly, resorts and hotels and motels in different parts of the country, including the three mountain regions, have also been declared closed for a maximum of two weeks. This closing coverage can be further increased.
The coroner’s condition began in the second week of last month, authorities said. After monitoring the situation, the government health department first sent 12-point recommendations on March 16 and then 22 and 16-point recommendations on March 26. It also mentions the observations and actions that will be taken regarding meetings, including hotels and motels, resorts, mosques, religious institutions, markets, educational institutions, and meetings. In districts where the contagion rate is higher than 10 percent, it is recommended to follow the closure policy of the aforementioned institutions.
