By EUobserver
Spain on Monday closed its borders to contain the coronavirus. "We are concerned about the health of citizens who are in Spain, with no distinctions made based on ethnicity or religion," said interior minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska, who explained that the measure will last for 30 days. The Czech Republic, Cyprus, Denmark, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, and Slovakia have also closed borders. Germany and others have partly closed them.
