(
CNN Radio Argentina
) - What is happening in Europe and especially in Spain with the coronavirus epidemic?
International analyst
Diego Estévez
spoke on
CNN Radio
on Wednesday
and affirmed that today in the Old Continent there is a “second wave” of the virus after a summer of “pseudo-security”.
“From Europe the second wave of the pandemic is entering with the same strain, but with cases like flares.
In Spain there are four very committed areas: Catalonia, Aragon, the Basque Country and Madrid ”.
And he added: "
Things are getting complicated here
, at the rate of eight thousand cases per day, in an upward curve very similar to that of Argentina."
Estévez
commented that after 96 days of quarantine, Spain “had contagion rates of 40 to 60 people per day and there it was thought that the pandemic was dominated.
But the virus knows no borders or politics.
The virus continues to circulate.
There is community circulation
”, he pointed out.
In his dialogue with the journalist
Pepe Gil Vidal on the program Café con Pepe
, the analyst said that "
the perception of the people when the first wave ends is a feeling of pseudo-security
."
“What has happened in Italy, France and especially in Spain was social responsibility.
Using the mask randomly, under the nose, greatly encourage social gatherings, "he said.
And he added: “I understand that one comes from a moment of contraction of sociability, but if you go overboard… today the band of 16 to 40 years (of age) has exceeded.
They believe they are omnipotent, arrogant and untidy in their social behavior
”.
For
Estévez
, this situation means that "today the average rate of coronavirus is around 30 years, and in Italy 28 when before we had average ages of 50 to 55 years."
Regarding the return to classes, the analyst explained that Spain is experiencing a “complicated” scenario due to “lack of means.
Absolutely nothing has been done
.
Schools are opening without gel dispensers and masks.
The teachers do what they can ”, he concluded.
