Except today, which will start at one in the morning on an exceptional basis, with the curfew, night mobility is restricted throughout the Valencian Community

between 12 at night and six in the morning

.

This was announced by the president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Ximo Puig, after the meeting of the Integrated Operational Coordination Center (CECOPI) with all the security forces.

The head of the Consell has warned that between 12 and 6 in the morning

only those people who go to work, who come home from work, or who travel due to force majeure

, such as a medical emergency or the care of a dependent person.

A measure that

will last until December 9

.

The

maximum number of members in a family or social gathering

in public spaces

is also limited to

6 people

, and also in private spaces between non-cohabitating people.

The

gardens and outdoor recreation areas

may only be open until 10 at night.

In hotel and restaurant establishments, the following standards are set.

First, the consumption will always be at the table, never at the bar, the tables will be for a maximum of 6 people and the establishments will close at midnight.

Similarly,

the sale of alcohol is prohibited between 10 at night and 8 in the morning

, except in hotels and restaurants.

In addition, as recommendations, President Ximo Puig has made it clear that the new resolution

asks to postpone family or social activities that are not essential

, as well as limit social activity in the coming weeks.

Puig has emphasized that the evolution of the pandemic "in our environment forces us to adopt new measures. With a primary objective: to protect health."

For this reason, he clarified that the Generalitat "is in favor of a common solution for all of Spain. A modular solution, depending on the situation of each territory, to better face this second wave of the pandemic."

In his speech, he expressed that this common solution is necessary, because

"we cannot be more aware of the courts than of the hospitals

. That is not the time for discussions, but for solutions. While a joint response arrives, the Valencian Community he will not wait. "

Agility should be applied now, according to the Valencian president: "We cannot lose a single day. What we are at stake is too important. And that is why we are making our way."

To make the decision to initiate the restrictions, the Valencian official has detailed that he has listened to all the political, business, union and institutional agents of the Valencian Community:

"And they all share, with the Consell, the need for new stricter measures "

, for which he thanked his willingness to continue working - from the unity of action - in favor of the general interest of the Valencian Community.

He highlighted that the incidence of the virus "is lower here than in all the surrounding territories", such

as the peninsular community with the lowest incidence of the virus

.

However, he has also pointed out that the cases detected this week in the Valencian Community have doubled those of the previous week.

Therefore, he has considered "urgent to reinforce the measures that stop the spread of the virus and protect health."

"It is unavoidable to avoid the concentration and wandering of people in the night time zone where large bottles and private parties take place in private homes. Because

2 out of every 3 outbreaks have a social origin

, with a high incidence of unregulated nightlife," according to the president , who has described that in just three months, the Department of Justice has received more than 20,000 acts of a sanction proposal for breaching the prevention measures against Covid.

More than 20,000.

And the source of contagion of 90%

of them derive from social gatherings and parties contrary to health regulations that are held in chalets, homes or country houses.

All of this is part of our way of understanding life.

"And it's okay; we like to be like that. But now it can't be done. Nor can we tolerate it," he added.

He has also criticized the laziness and neglect of some: "

Enough of the irresponsibilities that endanger our elders, vulnerable groups, health personnel or any citizen

. Enough of isolated irresponsibility in the face of a society that, in its immense most of them are making a huge effort. "

Finally, Puig has assured that he will request the Government to declare the State of Alarm.

as the "most useful legal instrument" to face "this difficult situation from the unity of action" and with a spirit of co-governance.

In this sense, he appealed to all the autonomous governments and the parliamentary forces represented in Congress, to endorse the proposal before it is too late: "Let us not centrifuge responsibility: neither governments nor opposition. We are not here for confront, but to help and protect citizens. We are in the middle of a global pandemic: let no one forget it. "

The words of the head of the Consell recalled how it was going to be bought in March: with all possible caution, how the safety distance was maintained in April: in a strict way.

And for that reason, he asked to return to those levels of precaution, "because that is how we reduced the number of patients:

from 2,200 hospitalized to 51. From 386 people in the ICU, to 4

".

It has specified that there are 808 admitted and 125 in ICU.

A third of those we had 6 months ago, but the cases are evolving rapidly, as proven by the 1,690 new positive cases, "the maximum registered so far in the Valencian Community, although many asymptomatic and a high percentage are young."

As for media figures against the pandemic, it has said that there were

1,469 trackers, 10,000 backup toilets, double the number of hospital beds

, a large capacity for PCR and protection reserves for 6 months.

In his conclusion, President Puig has called for good sense and responsibility: "Now is the time to make a greater effort on the part of the entire population.

To arrive at Christmas in the best social, family and commercial conditions

. Not to strangle the economy and daily life with measures that nobody wants. This is - if you will allow me - the hour of civic patriotism: The patriotism of the values ​​that unite us. The Responsibility of a mature society that assumes its obligations. Solidarity with whom he may fall ill or lose his life. The Fraternity of those who are not indifferent to the health, economic and employment situation of their neighbors ".
