Coronavirus on the Nile : Masks are mandatory now in Egypt

On Saturday, Egypt started imposing face masks mandatory in public. Those who will violate the orders will pay hefty fines up to authorities.

Since early reports, I read news reports and testimonies of people in the streets saying the authorities are taking things seriously so far on the first day in Cairo. Even microbuses drivers are asking the passengers to wear masks.

On Saturdays, Egypt is back to its 8 PM to 5 AM partial curfew.

All the businesses are back to work including shops and malls within the working hours.

The government is going to impose a more strict and longer partial curfew from 5 PM to 6 AM nationwide.

All beaches, public gardens, restaurants ...etc are closed during the upcoming 5 days. The government hopes to reduce the number of infections in the country because it hopes to open up the country in June.
