“Enough”, “No to restrictions”, “Then no”, “Our districts are not ghettos.” These are some of the phrases that can be read on the posters of the hundreds of people who protested today in Madrid against the new anti-Covid measures taken by the government. It is not about confinements, but something similar, because as of Monday, September 21, in Madrid, more than one in ten inhabitants will be able to leave their home “only due to force majeure.” And so several hundred citizens of citizens gathered to protest in the streets and in front of the regional parliament against the new restrictions on mobility. There were no shortage of attacks on Isabel Díaz Ayuso who decided on the restrictions (a sign reads “Ayuso, the virus is you”). In images from the event, everyone appears to be wearing a mask. The measures, which will come into force tomorrow for two weeks, affect 850,000 people, 13% of the 6.6 million inhabitants of the capital and its interior. The decision was necessary due to the increase in cases registered in the country. And yesterday there was a demonstration by the deniers against the restrictive measures in London. In France, the situation seems to have improved somewhat in the last 24 hours: here 10,569 new cases were recorded in one day, a sharp decline compared to the previous day when there were 2,929 more. The test’s positivity rate continues to rise, standing at 5.7%, down from 5.6% yesterday.
