Spain is grappling with a significant rise in COVID-19 cases, with 7,937 new infections confirmed on Wednesday, bringing the nationwide total to 47,610. This positions Spain as the second most-affected country in Europe, trailing only behind Italy.
In Barcelona, the situation is especially pressing. As the city welcomes its second day of spring and enters the 10th day of confinement, the streets remain eerily empty. Roger, a local contributor for CGTN, observed that many homeless individuals are still wandering the city's deserted streets without adequate shelter or protection against the virus.
Despite these challenging circumstances, there is a silver lining. Roger discovered dedicated community members and organizations actively working to improve living conditions for Barcelona's homeless population during the outbreak. These initiatives aim to provide essential resources, safe shelters, and support to those most vulnerable, ensuring that no one is left behind in these trying times.
