Spain, still reeling from the COVID-19 pandemic, will continue to bar tourists to the country until at least June 15.

The decision comes as a blow to the country’s tourism industry, which had been hoping European travelers could offer a much needed economic boost as the country faces a severe recession, the Sun reported.

Though Spain has been easing draconian lockdown measures, leaders are fearful of a second wave of infections and moving cautiously. More than 27,000 people have died from the virus in the country, making it among the worst hit in the world.

At this time, entry to Spain remains severely restricted with just five airports and eight ports open. Anyone who does mange to get back into the country — including Spanish nationals — will be required to undergo a 14 day quarantine.

The US State Department is currently advising against all international travel due to continuing fallout from the pandemic.
