Spain, with 34,673 coronavirus deaths and 1,046,132 contagions, enters this week with a curfew and customised restrictions according to each autonomy, in a bit to slow down the second wave of the pandemic.
With the exception of the Canary Islands, Spain spends its first night of mandatory curfew with a newly declared alarm state, which the Government wants to continue until May 9, to fight the second wave of coronavirus that threatens the entire population. Within this framework, autonomous communities, which may delay or advance the curfew by one hour from the 23.00 and 06.00-hour slot, will apply their own restrictions on mobility depending on the incidence of covid-19.
