The Andalucian Government made the decision to close non-essential activities in Andalucia as announced by the president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno.
The president of the Junta de Andalucía, after meeting last Sunday morning with the Advisory Council on High Impact Public Health Alerts (committee of experts) said these measures will remain in force, at least until November 23.
The term stipulated for the restrictions published in the Official Gazette of the Junta de Andalucía (BOJA) on October 23 expired, including the curfew from 23.00 to 06.00 hours and the perimeter closure of 449 municipalities of the autonomous community.
