While Horacio Rodríguez Larreta fights to continue with the quarantine openings due to the coronavirus in the City, Axel Kicillof adjusts
in the opposite direction
.
Last week, the governor had increased restrictions in 11 municipalities in the province and since Monday
added another 10
.
Kicillof's decision, however,
runs parallel
to the discussion on the joint strategy in the AMBA.
It happens that in the
almost 30 suburbs
that are part of the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires along with the Capital, the quarantine
never left its most restrictive phase
, 3. But as the virus tends to move "outward", in this case towards the interior of Buenos Aires, what the governor is doing is to
close more the districts of the
provincial
interior
.
As confirmed by the Government this Monday, the parties that go from
phase 4 to phase 3
are
May 25
,
July 9
and
General Alvear
;
while those that go down from
phase 5
(the most open)
to phase 4
are
Benito Juárez
,
Carlos Tejedor
,
Carmen de Areco
,
Maipú
,
Rojas
,
Trenque Lauquen
and
Tres Arroyos
.

It is clear, however, that
they are not as rigid phases
as at the start of confinement.
Number
3
, for example, despite being the most restrictive, today has
124 allowed items
: from essential jobs related to food to professions such as psychology, through dozens of manufacturing and production items.
The
phase 4
, meanwhile,
includes 10 points
over openings: Personal assistant private houses;
private construction work;
retail sale of textile products, clothing, footwear and toys in nearby stores with entry of customers;
entertainment outlets;
religious activities;
food and beverage service for consumption in gastronomic establishments;
Management services;
traveling food fairs;
car wash services;
and Music Therapy services.

Phase 5,
finally,
also allows

rehearsal of musical, theatrical works, etc .;
assistance to cultural spaces / ateliers on behalf of their artists;
outdoor sports activities;
recreational activities with social distancing;
gyms;
and cultural workshops.
And what is
still expressly prohibited

tourism;
teaching of face-to-face classes at all levels and all modalities;
more cinemas, theaters, cultural centers, libraries, museums, clubs and any public or private space that involves the attendance of people.
With the changes announced this Monday, the 135 municipalities of the Province are grouped as follows:
- In
43,
phase 3
governs
.
They are those of the Conurbano -the most populated- and more than a dozen of the provincial interior.
- At
67,
phase 4
governs
.
- At
25,
phase 5
governs
.
The
Preventive and Compulsory Social Isolation

By then it will be 184 days;
6 months exactly
.
To be continue.
