A record number of coronavirus infections were recorded in France, Poland and Slovakia. New restrictive measures are being prepared across Europe. Even new border closures and full national quarantines, such as those in March and April, may be closed.
A new regime has been introduced in southern Italy. In Naples and the surrounding Campania region, masks are now a must, even outdoors, 24 hours a day. The measure will run until October 4, in the hope that it will lead to a drop in the number of infected. Genoa and Foggia are introducing similar measures.
Israel has tightened its quarantine for 3 weeks from today. Citizens are asked to stay home. Many outlets are closing. Mass prayers during major Jewish holidays are also restricted. The restrictions are frustrating because they include a ban on rallies and protests. Opponents of Prime Minister Netanyahu see this as an attempt by the government to use the epidemic for political ends.
More and more countries are tightening measures against COVID-19
“I definitely blame the government for the whole situation. There is no plan, there is no organization, they don’t know what they do. They think only of themselves. Israel had no problems with the epidemic at first, but then rushed to open everything and eliminate the restrictions. It didn’t make sense, “said Debbie Amishhai, a Jerusalem resident.
There is also discontent in France. Marseille opposes the government’s assessment in Paris that the multibillion-dollar city is a “red zone” for infection. Both local authorities and citizens and small businesses are against a stricter quarantine.
“Yes, the sanctions are unfair. They demonize our business, they point out bars and restaurants. We are to blame for the spread in Marseille. Although we followed all the measures they asked us, it is still not enough,” said Jean Pierre, owner of a bar in Marseilles.
France set another anti-record number of new COVID-19 infections
The quarantine also extends in Spain, despite the discontent of the locals. The health minister said restrictions in parts of Madrid should be extended to the entire area.
All the measures that until now were applied to the six districts of the Community of Madrid will now be in force for each municipality, which has more than 500 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the last two weeks. This is twice the indicator for the country as a whole ”, said Salvador Iya.
The plague also stopped the Rio carnival. Renowned samba schools have announced that there is no safe way to hold a mass event. The carnival was supposed to be in February. It has been postponed for now, not canceled.
