Coronavirus: the second wave, the second closure

Later than expected by many, but in mid-November, the Hungarian government also decided to try to curb the second wave of the coronavirus epidemic by introducing restrictions. At the time of the decision, 5,000 new infections had been identified per day and the number of deaths from the virus was mostly between 50 and 100 in 24 hours. The first step is partial closure, but how effective it is is questionable. Follow our news!

By January 4, the largest epidemic measures were back in effect in Italy, which

it means an all-day curfew, a disruption to commerce and hospitality, and interprovincial traffic.

It is possible to visit family and friends once a day, as long as no more than two people over the age of 14 join the household.

According to polls, 94 percent of Italians spend the last night of the year at home. However, according to the news, both young and old are organizing parties in forbidden houses, so in addition to the street certificate, the Ministry of the Interior has also launched an online check to control the rental of accommodation and real estate. According to the Interior Minister, 70,000 gendarmes, policemen and firefighters will participate in the inspections. In addition, neighbors were asked to report the “suspicious” hospitality to the authorities.

The strict precautionary measures in force will be partially lifted for one day on January 4 and then another short circuit will be ordered on January 5, 6 and 7. Beginning January 7, students ages 14 and older are scheduled to return to classrooms. The possible opening of the ski slopes was postponed until January 18.
