The Health Minister on Wednesday issued a decree prohibiting the gathering of more than 75 people in a single, indoor space of private or public use, until the end of the month.

I see that people taking part in the marathon on Sunday which has been cancelled because of this announcement are making alternative arrangements as many were sponsored and using it as a fund-raising event.

As things stand it might well be that peeps will self police, by deciding not to venture out unless absolutely necessary.
I think that's the general idea to be honest. It's the common sense thing to do.

Dominic, doesn’t apply to supermarkets, I think following someone within 2m for 15 mins probably counts as stalking🤓

Yes, it has indoors and outside stalls. It gets packed. So we shall not be going there, as we are in the vulnerable category.
