Photos show the emergency makeshift borders European countries have erected in an attempt to stop the spread of COVID-19

The outbreak of COVID-19 in European countries has resulted in travel restrictions throughout the continent as nations hope to protect their citizens.

Freedom of movement has been suspended in some regions despite being a key tenant of European society as seen with the adoption of the Schengen Agreement. Europe is under siege from the novel coronavirus and countries are barricading themselves in to protect against a further spread of the virus or a worse outbreak.

Before March, traveling in Europe was as easy as going from state to state in the US with no passport checks on borders between 26 countries. Travelers could theoretically drive from Portugal to Estonia without having to show even a driver's license.
