The Minister of Health, Salvador Illa, has urged young people to remain "disciplined" in the face of the large increase in Covid-19 cases that Spain is experiencing in recent weeks, also reminding them that the 'bottle' "is prohibited ". "Let it be clear: drinking in the street is prohibited, you cannot drink in the street," he insisted.

This is how Illa pronounced at a press conference this Friday after agreeing with the autonomous communities on a battery of measures against Covid-19, such as the ban on smoking on public roads if there is no distance of two meters and the closure of discos, together with reinforcing controls to avoid unauthorized alcohol consumption on public roads.

In this sense, the minister has urged the autonomous communities to "apply more strictly" the sanctions to avoid the 'bottles' where many young people congregate to drink alcohol without respecting the security measures against COVID-19. "Sanctions have to be applied in each community," he insisted.

Illa thanked, "especially the elderly, the strict compliance with the measures ", but has addressed young people, since some of the measures approved this Friday "affect them more directly." "Remind young people of the importance of being disciplined.

In this phase in which we are living with the virus, we cannot not be disciplined, we cannot not comply with the measures ignoring that the virus is circulating among us, "he said.

For this reason, he has asked young people to maintain "discipline" during the remaining months until "there is an effective treatment or a vaccine" against COVID-19. Among the practices that the minister wants them to avoid are "making bottles, smoking when the distance of two meters cannot be maintained, meeting with more than ten people or giving great importance to complying with these measures, as older people are doing" , has detailed, insisting that it cannot be "tolerated that an uncivil behavior of a citizen endangers" everything that is being achieved in the fight against the coronavirus.
