The Canary Islands became Spain's second region to all but ban smoking in the streets as part of measures to stop a resurgence of coronavirus infections
MADRID - The Canary Islands became Spain’s second region to all but ban smoking in the streets on Thursday as part of measures to stop a resurgence of coronavirus infections, and other regions considered a similar ban.
Authorities also imposed new restrictions including the use of masks in public at all times, a limit of 10 people in gatherings and restrictions on nightclub capacity. Some workers in the bar and restaurant sector that is already stifled by a lack of tourists due to the pandemic sounded alarmed:“This complicates our lives even more. We already had to tell people to put the face mask on and now we have to tell them that they cannot smoke on terraces. It’s going to be complicated,” said a bar attendant in the Galician town of Pontevedra who gave his name only as Sergio.
