Greece, Spain Slowly Reopen Tourism Industries

VOA News

   The tourism industry is slowly being revived in some European countries
   with new precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

   Greece, whose economy relies heavily on tourism, reopened cafes and
   restaurants Monday under new social distancing guidelines.

   Travel to previously closed islands also resumed Monday, but thus far
   applies to domestic tourists, as the country is not expecting to
   welcome foreigners until mid-June.

   Greece has reported fewer than 3,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 -- one
   of the lowest numbers in the European Union.
