Bars in Brussels to close for one month
By EUobserver
All bars and cafés in the Belgian capital, Brussels, have to close their doors for one month, starting from Thursday (8 October), minister-president of the Brussels region, Rudi Vervoort, has announced at a press conference. Restaurants and sport facilities can remain open if they respect the 1.5m social-distancing rules. The tighter measures come after one-in-seven people tested for Covid-19 in Brussels appeared to be infected.
