There was traffic on the road on state highways to the point where the inhabitants of Ubatuba, on the north coast, blocked the access road to the municipality to prevent the arrival of tourists.

With tires they set fire to kilometer 93 of the Oswaldo Cruz highway to prevent the entry of cars from the capital, whose mayor, Bruno Covas (PSDB), determined the mega party.

In São Sebastião, a health barrier was interrupted by determination of the State Highway Police, according to the city council. The city installed barriers before the beaches, but the blocks were smashed and opened.

In Praia Grande, women decided to bathe in a fountain in the city due to the closure of the beaches, according to the enclosure adopted in Baixada Santista. Two people were in bikini in a pool of water.

The decision allows educational units to open in more restrictive phases of the São Paulo Plan, responsible for directing policies to combat the virus in the state.
