The Government doubts that Madrid will improve in a few days to be able to go to phase 1

The Government doubts that some communities like Madrid they have not passed to phase 1 of the de-escalated for him coronavirus they can improve in just two or three days the parameters that allow them to pass to it within a week, but it does not totally rule it out while waiting to know all the data.

Executive sources have recalled that the general criterion is that there be a review every fifteen days, but they have ratified the provision of the Cabinet of Pedro Sánchez that there may be a different evaluation in certain cases.


In such a short space of time they consider that, statistically, it is not the most likely




In this regard, they have referred to the words of the Minister of Health, Salvador Illa, in which it considered convenient that the communities that believe they are in a position to pass the phase, present the indicators that support it on Monday or Tuesday. That way, there would be time to make a decision before Friday and, if there is a change, it can begin to apply the following Monday, May 18.

In order for there to be a modification, they emphasized that a significant change should be credited with respect to the data that was presented only two or three days ago. In such a short time frame, they consider that, statistically, it is not the most probable and, therefore, it would be difficult to take the step. However, they have specified that it can happen and if the reinforcement to a great extent of the monitoring, identification and attention capacity were guaranteed, it would be possible.


The Government considers that Madrid is making progress in its early detection systems and in the incorporation of more personnel into primary care

The Government considers that Madrid is making progress in its early detection systems and in the incorporation of more personnel into primary care and monitoring of people with symptoms of coronavirus. But it specifies that this operation is not yet fully deployed and that this has been one of the main reasons why the Community has not moved on to phase 1.

The fact that Madrid has a high cumulative incidence of cases and hospitalized in Madrid is still high, so the Government considers that this forces it to act with great caution and prudence. The Executive also emphasizes that, faced with requests from some communities to go directly to phase 2 of the de-escalation, this will not be allowed in any case.
