All countries and even states are at different levels of restrictions, I’m interested in knowing how restrictive where you live is. Please state your City, Country, population, active cases and general restrictions on your everyday lives.

Queensland

Australia

Population 5.13 million

22 active cases

100 people in venues if they have the area

Stadiums open, seating spaced

Bookings essential or sign in register

Have to be seated at a table

Can’t travel outside borders unless you get official documents

14 days hotel quarantine if travelling to hotspot areas at your cost

All shops and business’s open

A lot of people still working from home if they can

Masks not compulsory

Social distancing and hand sanitizer everywhere

4 of our 6 states are like this, 1 in full lockdown to reduce transmission rates

We are pretty much back to normal day to day living with caution, of course if our infection rates rise, restrictions tighten if they can’t trace the source or cluster.

Is this saying you have a total of 22 active cases right now?

Yes in Queensland’s, population 5.13 million. Only our state. Other states have different numbers and our borders are closed to them so travel is restricted.

7 deaths in our county total. Population total around 400,000+ Per those 7. Active cases under 200.

We shut down end of March and slowly are reopening with a lot of restrictions. Schools are online only for now.

Just got word schools won’t start til 21st of September due to fires and they were already a week late.

Which country, city?

The US will be hard to compare because we have 50 states and a billion counties/cities/towns in those states.

I will do the state of Indiana, USA

Population 6.7 million

788 new cases 9/9

106K total cases

3,420 total deaths


Yes that’s why I thought it would be interesting to know from states or cities. From where I sit we just hear about the US as a whole and it looks very sad. Even here in Australia, Queensland and 4 of our states are doing really well but Victoria is not good at all and in stage 4 of lockdown and have been for more than 6 weeks. They can go out for 1 hour a day to exercise, masks mandatory. All businesses shut except essential services. Ie: Groceries, hospitals etc

All indoor non essential stuff is closed.

Playgrounds closed but most parks and public places open (well closed now with the unsafe air and ash rain.)

Schools online only but weirdly most daycares still open.

Takeout, pickup/delivery, and outdoor dining for restaurants

Idk if gyms have reopened but the pools are still closed.

Essential businesses and some others are open with mask requirements.

I think hair salons and barber shows reopened last week.

Required to wear a mask outside when you can’t social distance.

Los Angeles

4mill population

251k total cases

6,128 total deaths

Average of 1100 new cases and 40 deaths per day

At one point we had a high of 4200+ new cases and 90ish deaths per day so it’s good to see the numbers going down.

Wow. Victoria is similar to the population of Indiana.

We are in much worse shape and you have restrictions that we have never had.

Strong leadership makes a huge difference!

New Zealand and Jacinta Arden led the way and Australia followed suit. So far so good!

London

Pop: 9 million estimate

42K cases as of 9 September

6885 deaths as of 3 August

Was first and hardest hit in the UK. First reported case 12 February but the rate of infection has died down since the end of May and spread to new hotspots further up north. Possibly due to the amount of people who are able to work from home compared to the industrial and manufacturing towns and cities.

From Monday in England only, no more than 6 people will be allowed to gather in public, outside and indoors to curb the new surge of cases we’ve been currently having this past week


Wow! Your cases are through the roof in comparison to us. We’d be in complete lockdown with those numbers! What address you restaurants/bars allowed? Are they still open? Is that 6 in your homes as well?

Germany

After a high increase between calendar week 29 and 34, the 7-day-COVID-19 incidence has stabilized since calendar week 35. Even if the number of new cases does not increase significantly at the moment, the situation is carefully monitored.

Mostly COVID-19-related outbreaks have been reported in nursing homes and hospitals, facilities for asylum-seekers and refugees, community facilities, various occupational settings, in the context of religious or family events and especially among travellers.

Total numbers as they have been electronically transmitted to the RKI:

Confirmed cases In total 256,850

Deaths 9,342

Recovered ca. 230,600

Population 83,834,622 as of Friday, September 11, 2020

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions are in place for entry into Germany from a large number of countries. Moreover, persons arriving from many countries are obliged to self-isolate for a period of 14 days. Mask have to be worn in public transport and shops. Big events like soccer, concerts have been cancelled until end of year, there won’t be big carnival processions and no Christmas markets this year. In general, a local lockdown or stricter measures depending on the number of cases in the affected district are possible, things are regulated as they develop.


Abliged to self isolate? Is that hotel quarantine or at home? How do they monitor people are doing the right thing if at home? Here, if you return from overseas, you are hotel quarantined at your expense and pretty much locked up!

I think Scotland and Wales also have 6 person rule don't they?
