The governor of São Paulo, João Doria (PSDB), announced on Monday the 30th that as of tomorrow the entire state will be in the Yellow Phase 3 of the São Paulo Quarantine Plan, after worsening in the epidemiological rates of covid-19 In Franca, the increase in hospitalizations and the number of deaths per 100,000 inhabitants were decisive for the region to remain in the same phase and for the municipality to be placed in a state of care. The regions currently in Green Phase 2, the second least restrictive, return to the Yellow phase: the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo, as well as Baixada Santista, Campinas, Piracicaba, Sorocaba and Taubaté. The area concentrates around 76% of the population of the State that, with the reclassification, begins to coexist with more restrictive measures to combat the new coronavirus. In the case of these regions, the change alters the opening hours of commercial establishments and, according to the governor, does not determine the closure of bars, restaurants, schools or shops. They remain in the Yellow phase, in addition to Franca, Araçatuba, Araraquara, Barretos, Bauru, Marília, Presidente Prudente, Registro, Ribeirão Preto, São João da Boa Vista and São José do Rio Preto. According to the Secretary of Economic Development, Patricia Ellen, the data from November 16 pointed to a presence of 89% of the state’s population in the green phase. According to Doria, the next update of the São Paulo Plan is expected to take place on January 4, 2021. The last update was carried out by the state government on October 9. The governor announced that the State began to monitor the data every seven days and no longer monthly, with this change, Franca worsened in two indices of the São Paulo Plan last week compared to the previous seven days. New admissions of patients with suspected or confirmed covid-19 grew by 9% and deaths reached a rate of 5.2 per 100,000 inhabitants, rates that give the region a Yellow rating. Despite the high proportional death rate, which prevented the region from advancing to the Green phase, Franca and the other 21 municipalities of the DRS-8 (Regional Health Department) showed a 43% drop in deaths and 22% in new cases from week to week. The occupancy rate of the Covid beds of the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) in the region is 33% and the number of Covid beds per 100,000 inhabitants is 13.9. In addition to continuing in the Yellow phase, the municipality of Franca, specifically, was placed in a state of care with other 61 cities of the State, with more than 70 thousand inhabitants, who had an average bed occupancy higher than 75% or an increase of hospitalizations in more than 10%, when comparing the last seven days with the same previous period. This Tuesday 1, the mayors of these municipalities participate in a meeting by videoconference with the governor. “We will hold this meeting with the 62 mayors with the aim of improving control of the pandemic in these municipalities and offer them, if necessary, support so that they can follow the guidelines of the Government of São Paulo,” said Doria. According to the governor, “the country is exhausted from contingency measures.” Doria demanded that the federal government immediately present a National Immunization Program that includes Coronavac and other immunizers approved by the National Sanitary Surveillance Agency (Anvisa).
