A new mobility report
The director of the Complex Engineering System Institute and academic of the University of Chile, Leonardo bassoexplained the new mobility report regarding confinement measures in the region, which revealed that from March to September there were low levels of mobility, but it has been increasing.
“In that sense, mobility plays an important role in controlling contagions, of courseIt cannot be the only measure, because the economy is collapsing. What happens is that a city cannot be quarantined forever and what we see in everything graphic and that of Magellan too, is that as they meet weeks the operation ceases to be effective“said the expert.
“That is what begins to worry, in what way does one make a measure that has a faster hit of effect, at the same time we have to learn to live with this virus in individual measures“he added.
In this line, the Public Health academic at the University of Santiago, Claudio Castillo, pointed out that ” climate issues also have an impact regarding the number of cases “.
But that, according to the specialist, “what happens in Magallanes is that it has been multi-causally affected and this region has become the focus of the pandemic, but also the authorities have responded, in my opinion, belatedly, insufficiently and also uncoordinated. There, I think that what you have to look at is a little bit of the New York experience that has high testing and significant traceability. “
