“For us social distancing is important and I want to repeat it again, there is no more effective medicine than social distancing to contain the spread of contamination that is occurring in many communities that are turning a blind eye,” he stressed.
In addition, the minister said that the country does not have a more effective response to the socialization of the disease than through the intra-household confinement of the people, as well as taking precautionary measures.
