Easter Restrictions

The Official State Bulletin published today (BOE) has outlined what the restrictions will be for 17th March to 21st (San Jose) and 26th March to April 9th (Easter week). It states that although the incidence rates are dropping, they are not near enough to the required 50 per 100,000 to allow measures to be relaxed. Also, the number of beds being occupied by Covid -19 patients in intensive care units is also lowering albeit slowly but at 25% it is still too high.

Here are the restrictions which will be in place:

  • No movement in or out of the autonomous states.
  • Curfew from 23.00 to 06.00.
  • Limit of 4 people meeting up in a closed space and 6 in open areas. In private spaces, meetings will be limited to cohabitants.

 

The Incidence rate has risen slightly today in Ayamonte and we are just below the 100 mark (94.8). It comes after we have had 15 cases in the last week, five of those in the last 24 hours. It is important that we do not relax to avoid any return of harsher restrictions.

There are currently 1,180 patients in Andalusian hospitals with Covid-19 of which 308 are in intensive care.

Today there are 36 people hospitalized in Huelva hospitals of which 7 are in intensive care. Huelva declared the least number of cases in the last 24 hours in Andalusia with 28 new cases and there was one new admission to Hospital. Sadly there were three new deaths ( Lepe, Bollullos, Palos de Frontera).
