ARCHIVED ARTICLE

48% will be in phase 2

On June 8th, a new week of the Covid de-escalation process in Spain begins, with more than half of the country in phase 3.

During the press conference presenting the decisions made by the Ministry of Health, Minister Salvador Illa commented that the decisions were made, as always, according to "technical criteria".

All of the requests made this week have been given the green light, including that of Madrid to move to phase 2, an unexpected outcome for the region which has suffered the worst of the crisis and is still the source of the large majority of new cases in the country.

From Monday Madrid, Barcelona and Castilla y León will move to phase 2, and all of Andalucia will go into phase 3, including Malaga and Granada, which only had one week in phase 2.

Full details can be seen on the map showing which areas are in which phases.

Movement

Earlier in the week there was considerable confusion over movement between regions and again today it was reiterated that movement between provinces within the borders of an autonomous community is permitted provided the region has specifically requested this freedom of movement within its boundaries.

Movement between regions (autonomous communities) of the country is not permitted until after the conclusion of the state of emergency on 22nd June (midnight on the 21st).

On Tuesday Cabinet will discuss the transition into the "new normal" and issue guidelines relating to areas which must still be controlled after this date, such as the wearing of masks in the street, opening of borders etc.
