Countermeasures to mitigate coronavirus

The most visible rules introduced by the governments of tourist destinations are those you can see in most cities around Europe – mandatory mask order, social distancing and disinfectants distributed at the entrance to each shop, restaurant and other public places. Furthermore, in most tourist destinations, municipal services disinfect sunbeds, railings and, in some cases, even streets or famous monuments.

Other countermeasures against coronavirus in mass tourism include limits to how many people can gather in one place – including beaches. In Greece, this amounts to 40 people per 1,000 square meters, and umbrella poles need to be placed 4 meters apart, while canopies can be no closer than a meter apart. Additionally, hotel air conditioning filters are changed after each traveller's stay.
