The Luxembourg parliament has decided to ban Friday curfews from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. to curb the coronavirus, the telegraph office wrote, citing local media reports. An exception to the night curfew is if you need to see a doctor or if you can still be on the street if you go to work or return home from there. Private meetings of people who do not live in the same household can bring together up to four people instead of the previous ten. Restaurants can only serve seated guests, four people can sit at a table at a time. The mask should be worn in all enclosed and public places, even for visitors to outdoor sporting events.
In the Benelux states, the number of infected people continues to rise, but the spread of the epidemic is already much slower than before.
For violating the new regulations, individuals can be fined up to 500 euros, about 180 thousand florins, while restaurants, bars and other restaurants have to pay up to four thousand euros, that is, almost 1.5 million florins. The new regulations will remain in force until the end of the year, curfew, for now, until November 30. According to the latest information from the Luxembourg Ministry of Health, the epidemic in the Grand Duchy is intensifying at an “alarming rate”, and the number of virus tests showing a positive result almost triples compared to the previous week. In the last 24 hours, the Luxembourg authorities have reported 697 new infections.
The Spanish parliament extended the state of emergency due to the coronavirus situation until May 9. The empowerment of the legislator provides a legal basis for the governments of the Autonomous Communities to restrict freedom of movement at the local level, for example, conditioning the entry or exit of the territory of each region. The latest measure has already been announced by 12 of the country’s 17 provinces and two North African enclaves over the next two weeks. The Community of Madrid will only enforce the restriction for the next two weekends, since both will be long weekends and, therefore, they want to avoid mass trips. According to a decision of the Spanish parliament, the prime minister must inform the legislature about the virus situation every two months.
About 11,000 coronavirus infections are being hospitalized in the country and more than 800,000 have been recorded since the outbreak began.
The Spanish government announced on Sunday that it would declare a state of emergency and limit night departures, generally from 11pm to 6am the next morning, the start and end of which the provinces could change at their discretion in about an hour.
