UPDATE:  

The C.Valenciana president approved the Decree today and the new restrictions come into force tomorrow, 25 January until 15 February - please see attached graphic.

Hi all,

New restrictions imminent for Madrid, Basque country and Valencia - extract for Valencian region below and the full article here:

https://english.elpais.com/spanish_news/2021-01-22/madrid-basque-country-valencia-announce-new-coronavirus-restrictions.html

Not sounding good, stay safe everyone.

Kim

"The Valencian government is preparing an “imminent” decree to forbid members of different households from meeting inside homes. Exceptions will be made for people who need to provide care, couples who don’t live under the same roof and elderly people who live by themselves and may stay with family members.


"Deputy premier Mónica Oltra made the announcement on Friday following a meeting of regional government officials. Earlier this week, Valencian authorities ordered all food and drink establishments to shut down for 14 days and told retail stores to close at 6pm as the virus continues to expand in the region at “an extraordinary rate,” in the words of regional premier Ximo Puig.


"The Valencia health department has started to contact neighbourhood associations to get the word out that people should self'confine due to the severity of the situation, the regional daily Diario Informaciòn reported.


"Rafael Ruiz, president of Alicante’s Provincial Federation of Neighborhood Associations, told this newspaper that he received a call from the district’s healthcare center: “They are asking for people to stay at home. They are scared because the situation is getting out of hand.”


"All three provinces in the region – Castellón, Valencia and Alicante – are in the extreme risk scenario. The 14-day cumulative number of cases per 100,000 inhabitants has been climbing almost vertically since the end of the Christmas period, and on Friday stood above 1,000. Some Covid-19 patients are already being transferred to field hospitals as healthcare facilities struggle to deal with a tremendous surge in infections.


"A home confinement cannot be legally imposed in Spain under the current emergency state approved by parliament in late October and due to expire in May. But the string of increasingly strict restrictions imposed by regional governments is coming close to a de facto lockdown."

What’s the difference from forbidding people not related from different households meeting homes but allowing family members from different households meeting? Oh yeah, they don’t want to stop Spanish families from meeting up, heaven forbid!

Hi DonRod,

You're very welcome.

These measures may seem quite harsh to some, but having lived through Spain's first lockdown, these latest restrictions aren't too bad.  Although I realised yesterday that I'd shot myself in the foot: I'd planned to go to Leroy Merlin on Saturday for some DIY kit, then decided to leave it until today because I thought it would be quieter than the weekend - but now I can't go to Elche.  C'est la vie! 😄

Stay safe,

Kim

Hi Kim

Is it not the weekend you can’t go to Elche? So if I read it correctly you can go to Leroy Merlin after all
