This Friday a nursery school in the parish of Urra, in Portalegre, ended after an employee tested positive for covid-19.

In addition to the 140 tests that were carried out yesterday in the municipality, this Friday more tests are also carried out to identify possible cases of covid-19. Services were also temporarily closed “preventively” in the municipal workshops building.
