As coronavirus spreads across Europe, daily life for the continent’s 750 million inhabitants becomes increasingly unrecognizable.

But their governments’ draconian measures may have come too late to mitigate the virus’s fallout.

Today’s proclamations out of France and Spain are but the latest example of that. The Spanish government is putting its 47 million residents on partial lockdown. All Spaniards are being told to stay home except for going out to work, the grocery store, the pharmacy, and other emergencies.

France has shut down all of its top tourist destinations. For the first time in decades the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and Musée d’Orsay are closed simultaneously. The favorite haunts of local night owls – cafes, bars, restaurants, and cinemas – throughout Paris and other urban centers are empty as well. The new restrictions, announced by Prime Minister Édouard Philippe will affect all businesses, except those of “first necessities,” including pharmacies, grocery stores, banks, and newspaper stands.

The BBC further reports:

Two of the EU’s biggest states, France and Spain, have followed Italy in announcing emergency restrictions to combat the spread of coronavirus.

France, a country of 63.5 million, ordered the closure of all non-essential places used by the public from midnight (23:00 GMT).

Sweeping curbs on citizens’ movements will take effect overnight in Spain, which has a population of 46.7 million.

On Friday, the World Health Organization (WHO) said Europe was now the “epicentre” of the pandemic. Its head, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, urged countries to use aggressive measures, community mobilisation and social distancing to save lives.

  1. Our grand parents and of course far before them humans went through this every year. All ages died. This is a message to make us think how lucky we are to have what we have.

  2. Why is this virus any more important than the disease the southern border invasion of the USA?? Suddenly it is OK to control people? Sick liberals and no vaccine for that yet either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. I am elderly and remain very healthy. I only rarely feel ill, maybe for a day or so then, back to being healthy. I consume a variety of raw dairy products, organic meats and organic vegetables. I consume many different fermented foods too. Yes, go ahead, beat on me for the raw dairy. Then research Louis Pasteur to discover that he went to his grave regretting that he introduced pasteurization to the world. Why his regrets, he realized that pasteurization was destroying food. Go ahead, beat me down.

  4. Denmark has done what Italy is doing, isolating itself entirely – the EU chaos is due to ignorance, hoping the Wuhan China Virus would just go away – it is interesting that Americans living and working in Europe want to know everything and they’re not allowed to b/c even Denmark has cut of any communication coming in about what the US/Trump is doing to combat the latest Election Attack (there’s been a virus ‘scheduled’ for every American election since 2004, including one mid term, and this latest Wuhan Virus has been given an expiration date by the Chinese – perhaps President Xi can explain that one to Trump b/c we know he’s going to ask !) –
    I mean what I say so here’s a listing of the Election viruses –

    Swine Flu (H1N1)
    Avian (Bird) Flu (H5N1)
    SARS – Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
    MRSA – Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus
    MERS
    Anthrax
    Wuhan China Coronavirus Covid-19
    All that in addition to the Flu which plods on and kills –
    “The CDC has estimated (based on weekly USA influenza surveillance data) that at least 12,000 people have died from influenza in America between Oct. 1, 2019 through Feb. 1, 2020, and the number of deaths may be as high as 30,000. – Feb. 11, 2020”

  5. Bella Pelosi, better known as Dracula. Sneaked in a 1 billion Dollar funding for Plan Parenthood (The abortion factory) in the Coronavirus bill. Never let a crisis go to waste is one of the Demoncrat 10 Satan Commandments.

    Wuhan Virus AKA: Coronavirus weaponized by China and their treasonous Godless demoncratic Commie party and cohorts to crash the greatest US economy ever! And to take down the greatest president ever, President Trump!! Keep up the great work President Trump! 2020 and beyond! From the Patriots of a Commie Demoncrat free America!

  6. Horses are amazingly close to the corona viri.
    Many people who work on farm with animals DO NOT GET SICK!
    Why?????
    I guess to go back to a more natural life will help people to get back to REAL GOOD HEALTH.
    Whole milk, grass fed animals, real cheeses, real fruits, real veggies.
    NO B.S.

  7. Suppose a country could gain control of the production of antibiotics and other disease fighting drugs. Then suppose that same country should release a “test case” infectious disease into the world to determine the resulting chaos. Now suppose the U.S. should learn a lesson from this supposed scenario and begin to produce its own antibiotics and disease fighting drugs. Even if China did not create this chaos, they are a smart people and they are taking note of the results. They have also threatened to withhold those disease fighting drugs from us and allow us to reap the results. If we don’t learn from our past mistakes, our enemies will be certain to take advantage of our ignorance.

    1. The 600lb gorilla – the timeline strongly suggests this was intentional. China jailed the earlier whistle blower doctors and locked down the internet blocking any communication with virus in it.
      They let the seeding grow along with air travel.

      They accomplished two goals: reducing their population particularly the old non-productive who can’t work slave hours, 2) test WHO and free countries’ biological warfare response.

      And yes they are both that cunning and ruthless.

  8. Finally Europe is being chastised for its godlessness and for abandoning its Christian heritage. I do not think they will learn the lesson, but I hope at least some Europe and will go back to their Christian roots.

  9. This virus stops the global mentality dead in its’ tracks. Global only means the USA sending everything out to other countries, and when we need them to reciprocate, they refuse. If we do not learn from this lesson and become self sufficient again then our children will reap our stupidity.
