Spain announced that they are going to continue imposing their lunatic lockdown measures until May 9th. They did however say that they would allow children to leave the house after April 27th. How generous of them!

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez on Saturday announced the nationwide coronavirus lockdown would be extended two weeks to May 9, hours after the official death toll passed 20,000.
“We have done the hardest part through responsibility and social discipline… we are putting the most extreme moments behind us,” Sanchez said. But Spaniards must not jeopardise the fragile gains made so far with hasty decisions.
The restrictions currently in place would however be loosened slightly to allow children time outside from April 27, said Sanchez.
Until now only adults have been able to leave the house for specific reasons: to go to work, to go shopping for food or medicine, for a medical appointment or to walk the dog.
But there were growing calls to let children outside, as is permitted in most other countries observing a lockdown.
I can only imagine what historians are going to say about this period of time. Governments locking down healthy people including children all to try and extend the life of some old and fat people for a few months.
We are truly living through the most insane period of time in all of human history. Nothing like this has ever happened before.
