Sweden imposes strict restrictions

The European country of Sweden, which once opted out from imposing severe restrictions, has introduced certain strict restrictions to curb the spread of the Covid-19 outbreak.

The country has brought in certain important restrictions in the area of dining in restaurants.

Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven has recently admitted that there was something to be worried about.

The country has witnessed as many as 31 deaths in the last few days. The total death toll has crossed around 5,969.

Sweden is one of the few countries which has never imposed a severe lockdown. When most of its neighbors adopted strict lockdown measures, Sweden opted not to impose strict measures.   

The recent development indicates that the Swedish government is planning to make a U-turn on its policy regarding the lockdown restriction.

The new restriction measures will bring a considerable change in the way people of the country use its public transport and non-essential shopping.

At preset at least 70 per cent of the total region of the country is under some kind of restriction.

The government has recently brought in Halland, Orebro and Jonkoping.
