had been registered
.
With these deaths and new reported cases, there were 41,997 and 1,547,138 positives in the country until Monday.
While waiting for the arrival of the
Russian vaccine in the country,
the closure of borders in the world is accelerated by the emergence of a new strain of covid in Great Britain.
What is the most forceful measure in the Argentine government, at this time, in response to the recommendation of health experts?
According to
Clarín,
the plan would focus on partial border closures, country by country and temporarily, to give guarantees and certainty to Argentines who are abroad or to those who had scheduled vacations.
This is and, at the same time, to generate the least possible impact on social bad mood, after 9 months of pandemic.
