———ATHENS, Greece — Greece will shut down restaurants, bars, cafes, cinemas and gyms across a large part of the country, including the capital Athens, after a surge in coronavirus cases. The areas affected are most of northern Greece and the Athens region. Though closed for sitting customers, restaurants in these areas will be able to offer food for takeaway and deliveries. In contrast to the spring lockdown, travel within the country will not be affected and retail shops will stay open. Like other countries in Europe, Greece is in the grip of a resurgence of the virus.
