Greece Under Lockdown

Greek PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced a nationwide lockdown starting Monday 06:00 a.m.

All citizens are ordered to stay at home. Exceptions are allowed for those needing to go to work and short trips to supermarkets, doctors, relatives in need, exercise (single or in pair) or to walk their pet.

Also, people returning to their permanent place of residence are exempt from the measure as they travel.

Reasons for leaving home need to be provided in writing. All those outside need to carry ID/passport.

The move comes as health authorities earlier announced that two more people died on Sunday bringing the total number of fatalities to 15. Confirmed cases have jumped to 624.

“It must be done in time before it is too late,” Mitsotakis announced
