galopperande smitta[/b] i Argentina.
Kurvan är så brant att den ser okontrollerbar ut. Landet har fyrtiofem miljoner invånare!
Jag gjorde en sökning i går för att se om det fanns några nyheter som pratade om Argentinas utveckling. Men det enda jag hittade var standardkommentarer.. Från Argentina fann jag mest inslag om coronavaccin som skulle komma från Oxford och produceras i Argentina.
Jag undrar vad dom gör för åtgärder egentligen?
De har stängt ner och infört restriktioner, stängt skolor och gränser. Fast exakt vad som gäller just för stunden vet jag inte. Wikipedia har en artikel om
covid i Argentina, och så här beskrivs deras åtgärder:
On 7 March, the Ministry of Health confirmed the country's first documented death, a 64-year-old man who had travelled to Paris, France, who also had other health conditions;[6] the case was only confirmed as positive after the patient's demise.[6]
On 19 March a nation-wide lockdown until 31 March was established in Argentina.[7][8] The government later extended the lockdown to mid April,[9] then 26 April;[10] and on 25 April, President Alberto Fernández announced that the lockdown would be extended in major cities until 10 May.[11] The lockdown was lifted throughout all the country, excepting the Greater Buenos Aires urban area, on 10 May, with Greater Buenos Aires locked down until 24 May,[12] later extended to 7 June,[13] and then 28 June, after a big jump in the number of new cases in this area.[14] On 26 June, Fernández announced that the restrictions on movement in this area that were previously eased would be tightened again until 17 July due to a large spike in cases on the previous days.[15] Finally, on 17 July, the President announced that the lockdown would be gradually loosened in several stages to lead to the return to normality,[16] although the restrictions were extended again first until 16,[17] and then 30 August.[18]
Responses to the outbreak have included restrictions on commerce and movement, closure of borders, and the closure of schools and educational institutions.[19] Clusters of infections and deaths have occurred in nursing homes, prisons and other detention centers, and urban areas.[20][21] The number of tests increased over time, although there were some concerns as there was less testing than in other countries of the region such as Chile and Peru.[22] Even so, the government's responses to the pandemic were among the best received by the population in the region.[23]
Deras första dödsfall kom alltså något tidigare än vårat, så de verkar ha haft viruset minst lika länge som oss.
