As i understamd it they are taking measures like some other countries around the continent.
Have heard about Poland shutting borders, Slovakia shutting airports, Hungary shutting pubs etc and cancelling the first few stages of the Giro -
As mentioned, Poland have shut borders as of last night.
Schools, colleges universities closed.
Concerts cancelled.
The church are telling people to go to church to pray.
And to take holy communion.ETA - I was at a funeral last Wednesday here in the UK. Polish Roman Catholic church service. The priest was giving out holy communion.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know how Eastern Europe is doing?
So many headlines fighting for my attention these days that I wouldn't have a clue what is happening in Slovakia or Romania for example. My thinking is that if they are behind in preventive measures they might be properly fucked in a couple of months time. And as they are the people who actually still make stuff the general European economy might be significantly affected.
