Hi, I have an n95 mask. I have asthma and mild copd. A friend brought one over to me at the start of the corona virus. However I feel guilty holding on to it when there is such a shortage of them in the hospitals. My problem is this. I live i. Los gigantes and have no way to bring it to the local hospital as I don't have a car. Any suggestions as to how I could get it there? Many thanks 

OK

What is the present situation?

Spain has declared a national lockdown.

You can read the full declaration here (in Spanish):

Here are the details from the Guardian in English:

"The Spanish government has formally declared a state of emergency over the coronavirus, placing the country in lockdown and ordering people to stay at home for the next two weeks unless they have to buy food or medicine or go to work or hospital.

The prime minister confirmed that people would be required to stay home from Monday morning and that all non-essential shops would close, along with bars, restaurants, cafes and cinemas.

Supermarkets, small food shops, pharmacies, petrols stations and pet supply shops are among those businesses that will remain open.

He said: “During the state of emergency, people will only be allowed out on to public streets for the following reasons: to buy food, basic or pharmaceutical items; to attend medical centres; to go to and from work; to look after children, older people or those with disabilities or who are especially vulnerable, and to attend financial or insurance offices on force majeure grounds.”

Speaking after a seven-hour cabinet meeting on Saturday evening, the prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, said “extraordinary decisions” needed to be taken as Spain grappled with a “health, social and economic crisis”.

Sánchez said the central government would direct the response and that all the local, national and regional police forces would come under the command of the interior ministry. He also said that the army was standing by and ready to help with the emergency response.

Sánchez acknowledged that the measures needed to tackle the coronavirus would have a “big economic impact” but said the government was committed to mitigating its effects."

Hi,

My friend George has been missing in Tenerife since yesterday morning at 9:30AM local time. He recently moved from the UK and currently lives in La Camella.

The last he was seen was in Santiago Del Teide yesterday morning which is some distance form his apartment, especially as he has no phone or money on him. No water anything.

He is a very vulnerable man and we are very concerned.

George is 5'9, very tanned, brown short hair with blonde bits at the front with hazel eyes.

He has several tattoos which you would be able to recognise him from which are: a Geisha girl on his back, one red dragon and one green dragon either side of his chest, a lion on his left arm and a jaguar on his right arm.

Any help would be appreciated.
