Santiago de Cuba reinforces restrictions to fight Covid-19

Santiago de Cuba, Aug 13 (Prensa Latina) New restrictions to fight Covid-19 are being implemented as of this Friday and for 15 days in this eastern Cuban province, where high figures of contagions have led to a complex epidemiological situation.

Governor Beatriz Johnson explained that one of the fundamental decisions lies in granting massive vacations in workplaces or suspending work when workers have already enjoyed vacations, in order to restrict people’s mobility.

Limiting vehicle’s traffic and the commercial and gastronomic activities are other regulations, with reinforcement in messaging services and other alternatives to force people stay homes, the leader said.

Without reaching peaks that exceed 1,000 patients per day, the epidemiological behavior has remained with worrying indicators, which for many days, an average of 500 contagions and high number of deaths have been reported.
