one of the last to return to a certain normality
that was interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. Almost all industries, businesses and economic relations already operate in the provincial territory. There is mobility and social gatherings are allowed and even racetracks and gambling halls are enabled, with protocols.
But face-to-face education continued at all levels with the pattern of
