Turkey imposes partial curfew and bans picnics and barbecues as cases have doubled each day in the past week
Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan early on Sunday did his best to reassure his people about the nation's efforts to control the coronavirus pandemic, saying Turkey is doing its duty to protect citizens. "I hope we will get over these difficult times together. Just follow the rules and guidance and also continue staying at homes," Erdogan posted on Twitter while reiterating that those older than 65 and anyone with a chronic disease should not go outside.
Turkey imposed a partial curfew on Saturday for senior citizens and those with chronic diseases, but stopped short of a blanket curfew. Earlier on Saturday, Turkey suspended flights from 46 additional countries and banned picnics and barbecues, as the number of cases has roughly doubled every day for the past week.
Turkey now has 947 confirmed cases of the virus, with 21 deaths.
