"They must stay at home as soon as it is not essential for them to go out," said Meritxell Budo to the press, announcing also the closure of cinemas, theaters or nightclubs, the ban on meetings of more than ten people and visits to retirement homes or limiting the capacity to 50% in bars and restaurants.
