Empty city centre shopping streets are seen as the coronavirus disease outbreak continues, in Galway, Ireland, Oct 19, 2020. DUBLIN: Ireland announced some of Europe's toughest COVID-19 constraints on Monday , shutting non-essential retail, limiting restaurants and pubs to take away service and telling people not to travel more than five kilometres from their home.
"The government has decided that the evidence of a potentially grave situation arising in the weeks ahead is now too strong."While countries struggling with high rates of infection like Belgium, the Netherlands and France have shut bars, restaurants and imposed a nighttime curfew, none have such strict travel restrictions within the country.
On Sunday, Ireland broke its record for the number of cases recorded in a single day for the fifth time in nine days, and has the 12th highest rate among the 31 countries monitored by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control.
