Fearing an explosion of COVID-19 infections at the end of the year, the governments of cities on the São Paulo coast asked the state government for logistical assistance to avoid crowds and discourage tourists from making changes of course. Privately, government officials admit that restrictions on Plan São Paulo, the state’s economic reopening program, will be tightened as of January 4.
The idea that the city councils propose for the holidays is to mobilize the Military Police to act on the margins of the coastal cities, prevent crowds and create sanitary barriers that inhibit the arrival of occasional tourists to Baixada Santista. It is planned to measure the temperature of the visitors at the entrance of the city, but not to require proof of ownership in the region or proof of covid with a negative result.
“The proposal of the city councils is to create sanitary barriers in the access to the cities and the closing of the border on the 31st,” he told the Status Marco Vinholi, Secretary of Regional Development of the State of São Paulo.
Cities like Guarujá and Santos usually receive hundreds of thousands of tourists at this time. According to Vinholi, the prerogative to organize the barriers will be the prefectures, with the support of the State. They are the ones who must measure the reflections on traffic, which is usually congested in the region during the holidays.
The State has not yet determined the contingent that will be mobilized, but the issue must be discussed on Monday, in the crisis management committee of the Palácio dos Bandeirantes. The mayors of the north coast, in turn, asked the governor for help to reinforce care at the General Hospital of Caraguatatuba, which is a benchmark in the region.
The management of João Doria (PSDB) announced on the 11th the reduction of the opening hours of bars and the extension of the opening hours of stores and shopping centers as a measure to try to contain the crowds. On November 30, shortly after the municipal elections, the government had already placed the entire state in phase 3 (yellow) of the São Paulo Plan, after reporting high cases. If there is a new setback, the change will be to the most restrictive phases (2, orange or 1, red) and part of the trade will be closed.
According to the Status, the mayors of Grande ABC and the interior are concerned about a possible wave of infections in the Christmas season. Among the members of the State Executive, there is a growing defense of the thesis of a tightening of the measures of social isolation, which should be announced on the 4th. The main concern of the government at this time are the regions of Presidente Prudente and Registro , inside. , which should return to the red phase, in which only essential services, such as pharmacies and markets, can remain open.
Agglomerations
Eliseu Waldman, professor at the Department of Epidemiology at the School of Public Health of the University of São Paulo (USP), says that people do not follow the distance recommendations and that, on the coast, the agglomeration goes beyond the beaches. “People go to the bar at night, they go to the market,” he says. Experts have pointed to an increase in the participation of young people among those diagnosed with the new coronavirus.
The Contingency Center to Combat Covid-19, created by Doria to coordinate actions against the spread of the disease in the State of São Paulo, has already recommended that Christmas and New Year celebrations have up to ten people. The information is from the newspaper The State of S. Paulo.
