Spain tightens Corona measures

Several Spanish regions have tightened measures to contain the virus. The number of infections in Spain have increased rapidly in recent days. In total, more than 400,000 people have now been infected.

Private meetings of more than ten people in and around Barcelona are forbidden. In the south-east of the country, around Murcia, no more than six people are allowed to come together if they do not live in the same household. And in the capital Madrid, the government recommends avoiding all social contacts as much as possible. The balearic island group (Menorca, Mallorca and Ibiza) speaks of a second wave. The virus spreads so quickly that the authorities say it is difficult to conduct contact tests.

Some countries announced that they would put the travel advice for the whole of Spain on orange.
