The Ministry of Health has added 25,595 new infections this Friday and has notified 239 deaths to the official count. In total 1,185,678 people have been infected and 35,878 have died since the beginning of the pandemic, according to official data provided by Health. The Minister of Health, Salvador Illa, trusts that no new home confinements will be necessary. “The decree of a state of alarm does not foresee home confinements. We think that with these measures it will not be necessary to get there ”, he explained this Friday in the presentation of the Budgets of his Ministry. Communities continue to adopt restrictions as the pandemic progresses, especially to limit movement during the bridge. The Madrid Deputy Minister of Public Health, Antonio Zapatero, has called on Madrilenians to stay at home in the coming days. For his part, the mayor of the capital, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, has encouraged citizens to, "as far as possible" and "always complying with the limitations and regulations", take advantage of the bridge to "consume in Madrid ”, go“ to the restaurants ”and buy“ in your neighborhood store ”. Around 3,350 agents of the National Police and the Civil Guard, as well as members of the different municipal police, will monitor the exits of the Community of Madrid on the bridge, which is closed on the perimeter until midnight on Monday. Defense Minister Margarita Robles has recommended that the region request the collaboration of more military trackers to join its teams to fight the coronavirus. Galicia for its part has announced the perimeter closure of the large cities of its territory from three in the afternoon this Friday and Extremadura has approved capacity control measures.
