The president of Andalusia announced this evening the new restrictions that will come into place at Midnight Saturday 16th January.

• The border in Andalusia will remain closed and only people with a justified reason can enter or leave Andalusia.
• All hospitality (Cafes, Bars and restaurants) and commercial businesses must close at 18.00.
• 219 municipalities which have a incidence level over 500 in the last 14 days will be limited to within their municipality.
• 91 municipalities of the 219 above with a rate superior to 1000 per 100,000 inhabitants will be confined to their homes and only essential businesses can remain open.
• The curfew remains from 22.00 to 06.00 but the Andalusian Council have asked the Central government to authorize a 20.00 to 06.00 curfew.
• No more than four people can meet up.
• The federated athletes of high level or high performance will be allowed to travel unaccompanied; coaches, judges or federated referees will be allowed for the sporting activities of official competitions that are authorized at any time by the health authorities and that will be accredited by means of a sports license or federative certificate provided they do not come from a municipality with a perimeter closure.
• Bars and Restaurants will be allowed to take orders for takeaways up to 21.30 on premises and 22.30 by telephone and delivery must be made at the latest by 23.30.

It is important to note that the Andalusian Council will be constantly revising the list and as you can see from the article I published earlier today that Ayamonte (460) is on the brink of exceeding the 500 limit.
