In a press conference headed this Tuesday by the Minister of Health, Carla Vizzotti, the Government announced that in the last week

the number of departments at

"high

epidemiological

risk"

in the whole country

went

from 48 to 87

, going from 12 million people to more than

25 million

who live in this situation, in the framework of the second wave of coronavirus.

According to the study that the Federal Health Council (Cofesa) analyzed in its last meeting, 7 days ago there were 48 departments - with 12 million people - at "high risk" and currently that figure has risen to 87 departments.

Among them are the City of Buenos Aires and localities in the provinces of Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Santa Fe, Mendoza, Tucumán, San Juan, Entre Ríos, Chaco, Tierra del Fuego, Misiones, Corrientes, San Luis, Formosa and Santiago del Estero , involving about 25 million people.

The indicators used to say that a department has "high risk" are the incidence of cases in the last 14 days, the number of cases per 100,000 inhabitants and the ratio of cases, that is, the cases of the last 2 weeks compared with cases in the previous 2 weeks.
