Turkey bans alcohol sales as coronavirus pandemic measure

The number of COVID-19 infections in Turkey has been rising steadily for a while. Last week, more than 60,000 cases were confirmed in a single day. The seven-day incidence rate has risen to over 500 cases per 100,000 people across the country and over 850 in Istanbul, the largest city.
