My further research last night showed hat the land border with Portugal is locked down as of yesterday, but details are yet to be published.
There is a further govt meeting here in Portugal on Wed to decide whether to escalate the threat level. This could close all borders immediately (and of curse may be brought forward).
SWMBO got a touch of the frights overnight so I have now changed our booking for a flight home this Friday evening, two weeks earlier than planned. If the flight doesn't go ahead we still have a car and accommodation to the 3 April, and accom beyond that if needed.
(I think we are agreed that the risk is probably significantly higher in the UK than here but she doesn't want to get ill over here, and she wants to be nearer family. However if we had to stay we are absolutely OK with that too.)
