Regional PM, Juanma Moreno, announced the new measures that will come into effect at 00.01h on Tuesday morning, affecting Granada especially.

Granada will be the only one of the region’s eight provinces that will require all non-essential business to close. In other words all bars and restaurants will have to close, full stop, whereas in other provinces they will have to close at 18.00h in the evening.

However, the municipal-level lockdowns have been extende to the rest of Andalucia, as well, so it’s not just Granada.

Junior and high schools will continue to function but universities will only be able to give online classes, which is the case in the rest of Andalucia, too.

Next, the night curfew will be extended an hour either end of the day, so that it will last from 22.00h to 07.00h, which won’t make much difference to the hostelry trade in Granada as they’re all closed, anyway.

These latest restrictions will be in force 15 days; i.e. until the 23rd of November, unless extended.

“No non-essential business can remain open from Tuesday,” said PM Moreno, adding, “it pains me to have to bear this news.”

The businesses or services that can remain open are:

Medical facilities
Supermarkets and Food Shops.
Social Services
Veterinary Clinics
Opticians & Orthopedic Stores
Hygiene Products
Bookshops & Stationers
Gasolineras
ITV Centres
Home-Delivery Services
Funeral Parlours
Sports Facilities for outdoor activities
Social food kitchens
Driving Schools
Hairdresser’s

Editorial comment: instead of half measures indefinitely extended every fortnight, better a short, sharp response of total lock down for 21 days and be done with it. 

Lastly, how the hell are hairdressers essential services? The mind boggles
