As a result, the local Valencian government Vice President, Monica Oltra, has suggested that allowing the public to leave such a highly infected area is unwise at the current time.
Oltra said, “It may not be a good idea for citizens from regions with community transmission, like Madrid, to travel around Spain,”
Despite calls from regions such as Valencia for greater action to be taken to prevent people spreading the disease from highly infected areas, such as Madrid, the central government is unable to implement broader restrictions without the implementation of a new State of Alarm.
