For a long time, Estonia with its 1.3 million inhabitants came through the pandemic more gently than many other EU countries. But now the Baltic Sea state is badly affected and, according to the EU authority ECDC, currently has one of the highest infection rates in Europe.
This is due to the rapid spread of the UK strain of coronavirus, which is believed to be more contagious than the original form.
There is a lockdown until April 11th: restaurants and shops - except shops for daily needs - have to close, school operations have been switched to distance learning.
