Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Hundreds party in Spain as coronavirus curfew ends in most of the country

Young people tend to gather and party to celebrate when they feel liberated. Before a lockdown took place to prevent the coronavirus from spreading, bars, pubs, and streets in European cities were packed with people who wanted to socialize with others. Now, when the 11 pm curfew was lifted in many regions in Spain, large crowds gathered and partied in parks and beaches without face masks or social distancing. Though the number of positive tests has been declining and the number of people who had received vaccination has been increasing, thousands of new cases are being reported each day in the country. Yes, Spaniards are known for eating and drinking with family and friends. Also, they eat dinner very late and enjoy night activities afterward. So, it must have been so frustrating for them not to go out with their friends late at night than others. Still, Covid-19 is spreading and evolving. And there is no effective medication to treat the patients. If one is infected, he or she could infect more than one person. Have they forgotten how deadly and contagious the coronavirus is? Nearly 80,000 people have lost their lives in Spain.

Read the article and think about what makes people behave themselves and feel liberated.
