Nationwide lockdown in Greece

As of tomorrow, Monday, March 23, from 6 am. everyone in Greece is under total lockdown. We are ordered to stay home.  No more gatherings for social reasons. The only exceptions allowed are to go to work, short trips to the supermarket, pharmacy, doctor, relatives in need, exercise (alone or with one other person), or to walk a pet. Reasons for leaving home must be provided by text message or in writing and everyone outside has to carry an ID/passport. There is a fine of 150 Euros for disobeying the new regulation.
The total number of confirmed cases is now 624 (up from 530 this morning) with 15 deaths.
I plan to go running tomorrow morning (unless it's raining) and will carry my passport, tax number document and a note stating: Είμαι έξω για άσκηση (I am here for exercise.)
