How bad is it in Greece on ban rules because of Covid-19?
First, right now....a night time curfew is in effect from 9 PM to 5 AM. This will change on 30 November to a 24-hour a day curfew.
What happens with that restriction? Basically, all outside-the-house travel is ended or stamped to be avoided....except for work (essential work) and a small number of exceptions (public services, banking, helping people who are bad off, medical appointments, carrying a spouse to work, taking kids to school, funerals, marriages, etc).
Beyond those reasons? You have to send a text-message to regional authorities on why you are exiting the house.
The odds that some government guy will even monitor these text-messages? Well....the guys at the top think there will x-number of people standing by and reading these text-messages. I have my doubts (having been to Greece a couple of times in my life....I can vouch that no government works as advertised....ever).
People being cooperative with the curfew situation? Again, having been there and seen how things work.....I would suggest that the vast majority of Greeks will simply carry on, laughing about some government official ordering them to observe laws.
