The Netherlands will impose a curfew on its citizens, beginning Saturday, in an attempt to halt the rapid spread of a new coronavirus variant, Deutsche Welle reports. Residents will be housebound between 9PM and 4.30AM. The restrictions come on top of a lockdown in place since December. Non-essential businesses, schools, and restaurants are closed and strict contact restrictions are in place until 9 February.
