Does the 2-meter distance between people due to covid include closeness with our spouse?

Yes, the 2-meter space between people to prevent the spread of COVID-19 also applies to interactions with your spouse. If one of the partners has tested positive, or is experiencing symptoms such as fever, cough, or difficulty breathing, then isolation measures should be followed within the couple as well. It is recommended to avoid kissing or talking within less than 2 meters of each other to reduce the risk of spreading the infection. If neither partner has symptoms or has tested positive, then there is no need to maintain a distance within the house.
