Answer:
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a global pandemic on March 11th, 2020 [1]. Almost every country around the world has established new measures to prevent the spread of the disease. Within countries, the practices of COVID-19–related curfews and quarantines vary widely depending on the national responses to the pandemic.

Almost every country around the world has established new measures to prevent the spread of the disease. Within countries, the practices of COVID-19–related curfews and quarantines vary widely depending on the national responses to the pandemic.The first COVID-19 case in Turkey was officially confirmed on the 11th March 2020 [2], the same day the WHO declared the disease a pandemic. As of March 16th, schools and universities in Turkey were closed. Furthermore, a distinct method of curfew involving adolescents and young adults were taken. To our knowledge, Turkey is the only country worldwide to apply a unique age-stratified curfew; this first started for seniors older than 65 years (as of 21st March 2020) and followed by the curfew order for children and youth younger than 20 years (starting 5th April 2020) [3]. Turkey has a relatively young population compared with other European countries. There are 25.5 million children and adolescents younger than 20 years, and when combined with the 7.5 million people older than 65 years, the ratio of the population on lockdown accounts for 40% of the total population (83.15 million in accordance with the Turkish Statistical Institute) [4]. Authorities aimed to protect the elderly people with the highest morbidity risk and mortality rate by keeping as many as people at home to decrease the spread of the virus. They have implemented this with a youth curfew while allowing the people in between these age groups to work to keep the economy running.

They have implemented this with a youth curfew while allowing the people in between these age groups to work to keep the economy running.This strategy, along with physical distancing, makes sense epidemiologically and economically. However, adolescence is a developmentally unique period and the psychosocial consequences of the “age-determined” curfew should not be overlooked. In this letter, we will discuss this single-country example of youth curfew with a developmental perspective and how to transform this restraint to resilience.
