(ANSA) - ROME, JANUARY 04 - New restrictions in Catalonia starting from 7 January after the relative truce of the Christmas period.

This was announced by the Minister of Health, AlbaVergés, who supported the need for these new measures "to further reduce social contacts and try to keep the virus at bay".
Vergés announced that schools, as planned, will open on Monday 11, although extra-curricular activities will be banned. Physical activity is allowed only outdoors. (HANDLE).
