Austria bans gatherings of more than five people over coronavirus
Austria tightens restrictions on public life, banning gatherings of more than five people and restricting any movement to that which is absolute necessary, saying police will enforce the rules in a bid to halt the spread of the coronavirus.
The tougher measures are decided at an extraordinary session of parliament, during which Chancellor Sebastian Kurz calls on the population to self-isolate, only move out of doors when absolutely necessary and limit contacts to “the people they live with.”
