Egyptian fa bans fans from stadiums over coronavirus fears
That's not accurate. The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) has not banned fans from stadiums over coronavirus fears.
However, the EFA has taken several measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 during football matches in Egypt. These measures include:
- Limiting the number of spectators: The EFA has limited the number of spectators allowed in stadiums to 30% of the total capacity to maintain social distancing.
- Wearing masks: Fans are required to wear masks when attending matches.
- Temperature checks: Fans are subject to temperature checks before entering the stadium.
- Sanitizing: The stadiums are sanitized regularly to prevent the spread of the virus.
- Social distancing: The EFA has implemented social distancing measures in the stadiums, including spacing out seats and limiting the number of people allowed in certain areas.
These measures are in line with the guidelines set by the Egyptian government and the World Health Organization (WHO) to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
It's worth noting that the EFA has also taken measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 among players and staff, including regular testing, social distancing, and sanitizing of equipment and facilities.
