Danger of coronavirus - 11500

[Discobolus]

Ref the hospital visit to Nicosia, my wife spoke to the surgeon this morning, wants her there 10am Thursday, with regard to the request to leave our house use the hand written one, if stopped show her special pace maker card she has to carry, this explains that the procedure was done 6 weeks ago and this visit is to make any adjustments necessary, Nicosia had originally agreed with the Paphos Gen for the checks to be done there, but that is not possible now, if still a problem he has given her his mobile number, the police are to phone him, he expects no problem as the police have been very understanding.

How will putting a limit on withdrawals help? You'd simply end up with peeps going to ATM's more than they otherwise would, to draw out the same amount of money.

In Germany you can get cash (I think up to € 200 per shopping) via your debit card at the till of almost any supermarket provided you buy for at least € 10 or € 20 (depending on the supermarket) at no extra cost. They should consider introducing that.

So, that means, no SMS or form is needed for
a doctors visit or visit to pharmacy!!

That is not how I read it.. To me it just says that they are an exception to allow you to go out ..

[Devil]

I doubt it. I went into Larnaca this morning through two police controls. I can hardly imagine letting me through without the paper just because I was going for a consultation with my surgeon in the city.

They have that in the UK too. Cashback works well for the retailers because they have less money to worry about themselves.

How did you reach that conclusion?

[trevnhil]

I know we have used cashback in the UK.. But it must mean that they have to have a very large 'float' of cash in the tills to start with ..

[Dominic]

Not really. If they haven't got the money you can't have the cashback.

Obviously, I misinterpreted the wording!

I had booked , in October last year , to fly out to Cyprus on the 16th May , I felt reasonably confident that this would be ok but I am now having doubts .

Lockdown across Europe will be until July IMO

[Diocletian]

I would have to agree. This year is a write-off, sadly.

Does anyone know where there's a CY gov website (In English) where it sets out detailed up-to-date restrictions?

[jeba]

Many of us will have been refunded for cancelled flights

The right to a refund may be replaced by the right to get a voucher if the German government can get it´s way at EU level. Those vouchers shall be valid until the end of 2021 and only if you you haven´t used them by then will you be entitle to a refund.

Mike ... I think this is reasonably up to date. It certainly shows that people under 65 cannot use the form and have to use SMS.. I have it saved on my desktop for easy reference

Thanks Trev. I couldn't find what I was looking for! I've read on this Forum about being allowed to walk in the neighbourhood without a permit. If one is over 65 you just write another authorisation, but if you are younger & need to walk the dog (or just exercise) the SMS System will not allow more than one visit out!

[Devil]

If you want to walk the dog, there is no restriction and you do not need a form or an SMS call, provided that you are within an easy radius of home. You can therefore walk your dog as many times in the day as you like provided that it is not within the curfew times.

[trevnhil]

PHEW !!! Pretty much, anything

[Dominic]

Your link doesn't work.

I was looking for an 'official' government statement, so sorry Devil, but where did you get that information?
