The country declared a state of emergency and ordered a nationwide curfew to begin on Sunday after Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez warned that the country was facing an increasingly dire situation. The curfew will limit movement from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., except in the Canary Islands, where there are fewer new cases. The new emergency powers will last for 15 days but could be extended until May.

The number of days per year that a Parisian property can be rented through platforms like Airbnb is capped at 120, but breaches are not uncommon.

And now for the Back Story on … The impact of unemployment in America Twenty-two million jobs in the U.S. were lost in March and April because of the coronavirus pandemic.

For this project, The Times’s National desk collaborated with 11 local news organizations in the U.S. Here’s what Jia Lynn Yang, a deputy editor on the National desk, and Clinton Cargill, an assistant editor, [said about these accounts](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRheN1cP0T0aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8xMC8yMy9pbnNpZGVyL3VuZW1wbG95ZWQtaW50ZXJ2aWV3cy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X01CRV9wXzIwMjAxMDI2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIzNDg0Jm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWN0aW9uPWJhY2tTdG9yeSZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTQyMjU0JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAQ1xYll_CD2R-Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) from a dozen people. The National Desk has more than 40 reporters scattered across the country, but over the past year Marc Lacey, the National editor, has prioritized partnerships with local news organizations, as with this project. Clinton: Local news organizations have a special authority in the communities they cover. They know the big employers, the community groups, the state and local policies that make all the difference for people seeking unemployment. We thought they could bring some of that depth at the individual scale. Evetta Applewhite, 39, was told during a Zoom call for many employees in March that she had lost her job at a law firm. Derek Gee/Buffalo News With more than 12 million people unemployed in the nation, why did local reporters return to the same dozen — often over a few months — at different stages? Jia Lynn: The idea was to capture not just one snapshot but to do more sustained work tracking a person’s highs and lows. For anyone who’s ever lost a job, it can be such a grueling emotional experience, with very bad days followed by a day where everything turns up for you. We wanted to show that larger arc, and maybe stick around with some long enough that they actually found a job. What do you hope readers gain from this project? Jia Lynn: At a time when we are so cut off from one another, I hope readers feel a sense of empathy and connection. For those who have been blessed enough to keep their jobs, I hope they get a better sense of what it feels like for those who have been less fortunate. For those who have lost work, you are hardly alone. That’s it for this briefing.
