The conference in which the president Alberto Fernandez announced with the head of government Horacio Rodríguez Larreta and the governor Axel Kicillof from Quinta de Olivos the extension of the quarantine until August 30 began at 1:11 p.m. At that time the rating registered 17,7 points between the 6 air channels (Telefe, El Trece, El Nueve, América, Public TV and NET TV) and 10,3 counting all the news signals (TN, C5N, A24, Chronicle HD and Channel 26), adding 28 points in total. After just over 80 minutes, it ended at 2:35 p.m. with 17,6 of open TV and 11,2 on cable channels.
The final average across all air channels was 18,9, while that of the news signals was 12,3.
These measurements mark a drop of almost 4 points from the July 31 conference, which had a total average of 36,0 points between air and cable.
A fortnight earlier, on July 17, the president’s announcements had a peak of 40 rating points. At that time, the interest in knowing the new measures to make the quarantine more flexible due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the AMBA and in several provinces of the country was seen by 7 out of 10 people who watched television at that time.
Keep in mind that in the conference that Alberto Fernandez on April 10, announcing the first extension of the quarantine, had a peak of 53,2. However, it should be considered that on that occasion the message was given at 9:00 p.m., within the prime time of television (20 to 24), when the ignition is highest.
