Coronavirus, more than 11 thousand new cases in Germany. Spain towards a new state of alarm

The virus also does not release Europe. There are 11,176 new confirmed cases of coronavirus in Germany, a figure that brings the total to 429,181. According to reports from the Robert Koch Institute, the new victims were 29 for a total of 10,032. Every day in Europe they register negative records in the number of cases and deaths and with new restrictions imposed by governments, which tighten the links around activities considered non-essential and the freedom of movement of people. A situation to which citizens seem to react with a mixture of concern, carelessness in some cases and, on occasions, open rebellion. TO London Yesterday thousands of people took to the streets again to protest against the confinement measures launched by Boris Johnson – a procession later interrupted by the police -, as well as similar demonstrations in recent days in Spain and in other places. French President Macron, despite infections exceeding 40,000, says local lockdwons are still being scrutinized.

In the difficult balancing act between the desire not to further suffocate the economy already put to the test by the first wave of the virus and the imperative to safeguard the health of citizens, for days governments seem to be turning more and more towards necessity of a close groped to flatten a contagion curve that seems out of control. There Spain prepares to decree a new state of alarm that early in the week could pave the way for a general curfew across the country, after those imposed in some autonomous communities such as Madrid and Prime Minister Sanche explained that the infections could be 3 million. the Belgium, which set a new record of more than 15,000 cases in one day, also anticipated a curfew in Brussels from 10pm to 6am, as already decided in recent days in Wallonia. The obligation to wear masks everywhere was also reintroduced and as of Monday show halls, theaters, cinemas and sports halls will be closed. In Bulgaria, the capital, Sofia, will close clubs and discos for two weeks. There Poland, where President Andrzej Duda tested positive for Covid, he entered a semi-confinement regime with the closure of restaurants and schools from the fourth of eighth class, as has already happened for secondary and high school, the prohibition of meetings for groups over five people and an invitation to stay at home for those over 70 years.

The Czech Republic It is confirmed as one of the most serious European outbreaks, with more than 15,000 infections and 126 daily victims: impressive figures if one takes into account that the country has the same number of inhabitants as Lombardy, just over ten million. Other peaks have been reported in Balkans, in Bosnia, Serbia and Croatia. The United States also marked its new daily maximum number of infections yesterday, 80 thousand. The previous record was around 77,000 on July 16.

Supports ilfattoquotidiano.it: I never eat right now
we need you.

In these weeks of pandemic, journalists, if we do our job conscientiously, we do a public service. Also for this reason, every day here at ilfattoquotidiano.it we are proud to offer hundreds of new content for free to all citizens: news, exclusive insights, expert interviews, surveys, videos and much more. All this work, however, comes at great financial cost. Advertising, at a time when the economy is stagnant, offers limited income. Not in line with the access boom. That is why I ask those who read these lines to support us. Give us a minimum contribution, equal to the price of a cappuccino per week, which is essential for our work.

THANKS FOR READING NOW XX ITEMS THIS MONTH.

But now we are the ones who need you. Because our work has a cost. We are proud to be able to offer hundreds of new content to all citizens for free every day. But advertising, at a time when the economy is stagnant, offers limited revenue. Not in line with the boom in access to ilfattoquotidiano.it. That is why I ask you to support us, with a minimum contribution, equal to the price of one cappuccino per week. A small but fundamental sum for our work. Give us a hand!
