President Iván Duque warned this Saturday from San Andrés about the risk that is occurring in some cities of the country with the crowds, which are triggering the cases of covid.
In this sense, the president stressed that “the pandemic has not gone away · and made a call to avoid crowds, not only inside homes, but also in commercial establishments.
“Let’s not loosen up now,” said the head of state, who said that the call is “batteries with the issue of capacity, let’s not play with fire.” The Head of State acknowledged that in recent days positivity has increased and has been fluctuating between 19 and 22 percent.
For Duque, this situation puts at risk especially what has to do with the occupation of the Intensive Care Units.
That is why he remembered that they have taken “government decisions” to prevent this increase in cases from bringing with it the response capacity of the ICUs and he warned that they will be implemented as necessary.
In that sense, he insisted that there are measures such as restriction on the sale of liquor, restriction of mobility, peak and gender, and peak and ID.

“When doing the monitoring in the cities where we are having the highest level of affectation and growth of cases, There is a clear instruction to the Ministry of Health to work with the local authorities and is to adopt the restrictions that are necessary to reduce the expansion of cases“Duque said.
The Deputy Minister of Health, Luis Alexander Moscoso, was clear when he pointed out that, depending on citizen behavior, measures will be taken and told how, for example, in Cúcuta progress has been made in the curfew.
In that sense, Moscoso said that the cities with the highest risk are Cúcuta, Ibagué and Cali and said that Medellín, Bogotá, Armenia and Pereira are at moderate risk.
