Anyone planning on going to Spain for a summer holiday has been warned to take care after a recent increase in Covid-19 infections there. Its Ministry of Health revealed there were 68,186 reported cases of coronavirus on June 24.
Like many other European countries, Spain has seen a sharp increase in infections, a trend expected to rise until it hits its peak in three weeks. The new figure represents an increase of around 20,000 cases having previously stood at 48,272.
Madrid, the Canary Islands and La Rioja are the areas of most concern, all of which have exceeded the 1,000 case barrier. While the Murcia region has seen a sharp increase, Andalucia, remains bottom of the list.
