I actually don't remember that. Where was this?

We had this regulation in Europe but it wasn't enforced unless you made a huge party. It was more an easy way out for people uncomfortable meeting others because of COVID without having to argue about it.

That's because it didn't happen unless you had a 600 family member reunion or block party in Florida.

It never happened, this is just historical revisionism. Doubly so because the police will remove people from your house whenever you want.

It never happened where? Because it did happen in the UK - which is clearly where we're talking about

It was probably a strongly suggested guideline instead of an actual ban.

It happened in Colombia too! Only gatherings of four people, no cars on the streets etc
