This Tuesday there was a new meeting by videoconference between the Minister of Health, Jesús Vázquez Almuiña, and the mayors of the A Coruña area to analyze the evolution of Covid 19 in the health area. In the meeting, all the scenarios have been analyzed and all the possibilities have been left open.
What steps could be taken?
They consider mobility restrictions and extend measures regarding nightlife five more days though the decision will not be made until tomorrow. According to the mayors of the area consulted by Radio Coruña SER, there was no talk of confinement or total closure at any time, but of continuing to analyze the evolution of the data. José Manuel Lage Tuñas, First Deputy Mayor of the A Coruña area, makes a call for tranquility: “We have to always choose the health authorities when any change is made, the population will be informed”
What is the position of the mayors of the area?
The mayors of the area ask for calm, waiting for the data, although the possibility of closure, they say, does not look close. They point out that the decision is the responsibility of the Xunta always in coordination with the councils. The Mayor of Potters, Ángel García Seoane, it is preferred not to speak while waiting for what happens: “Hai que wait for events instead of talking as much nonsense as there is on the street, we are waiting for the counselor’s information. “
The mayor of Arteixo, Carlos Calvelo, consider that you have to take actions, but without alarming the population. He underlines that the councilor confirmed that there is no community transmission: “One thing the councilor told us is that most of the cases are imported and that is that the area is very dynamic and going to a greater closure is going to have a negative impact.”
He Mayor of Culleredo, José Ramón Riobóo, ask for unity and alert against overinformation. He recalled that the competence over the measures to be adopted is autonomous: “We have to have that full confidence in the health authorities coordinated by the Xunta, try to get the measures accepted and agreed, that is the work of the mayors.”
The mayor of Cambre, Óscar García Patiño, put on the table the possibility of adapting the time slots again in situations, for example, in which the walks of “people with a mask” and “people doing sports without it” collide. It calls for protection.
