New Year, new lockdown measures.<\/p>\n

As COVID-19 collapses the little that remains of our healthcare sector, the Lebanese government has decided to implement a three week lockdown<\/b>, starting this Thursday January 7th until February 1st. <\/p>\n

Below are the measures that are to be implemented:<\/b><\/p>\n

– Legal actions are to be taken against offenders, not just fines. <\/p>\n

– A nationwide curfew is imposed between 6 PM and 5 AM<\/p>\n

– All restaurants, clubs, cafes, and pubs are to close<\/p>\n

– Supermarkets and pharmacies are allowed to open between 5 AM and 6 PM <\/p>\n

– Delivery services are allowed between 5 AM and 6 PM<\/p>\n

– Healthcare workers are exempt <\/p>\n

– Odd\/Even plate rule is back in effect (Monday-Wednesday-Friday for odd and Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday for even)<\/p>\n

We will keep adding to this list as more details are released.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
