Spain is one of the European countries most affected by the new coronavirus epidemic. To this end, the country has declared a blockade since last weekend and requires citizens to stay at home as much as possible.
Naturally, some people will go out despite these suggestions, not only the risk of contracting the new coronavirus, but also the virus.
To solve this problem, the Spanish police began to learn the solution used by China: Utilize drones to patrol the city, and broadcast on the street to call on pedestrians to go home as soon as possible.
According to a video released by the BBC, the drone is equipped with a loudspeaker through which police can talk directly to pedestrians on the street and urge them to stay at home as much as possible.
Whether this solution works remains to be seen, but for now, drones can at least help raise awareness of the risks everyone faces when they go out.
Drones were also used in China to play the same role.
Early February, when the weather in Hangzhou has improved, four people played poker in an open space, with some of them not wearing masks. They get warned by a drone.

According to the Qianjiang Evening News, Ms. Chen said that she and her friends had just got together, and a voice came from the sky to remind them that the epidemic situation was serious, and they needed to protect themselves and go home immediately.
They didn't understand what was happening at first, and they stared at the drone. Unexpectedly, the drone continued to make sounds, asking them to put on their masks and hurry home.
Ms. Chen said that she did not find a mask from her pocket, but only a tissue, so she covered her mouth and nose with a tissue and returned home with the drone.
According to the Qianjiang Evening News, this is the first day of the drone's work, and it focuses on patrolling densely populated areas.
When people look up and watch, they will make a sound to remind them to return home as soon as possible and avoid long time out.
