Also, Chief Fabiana pointed out that technological means represent a great alternative for families to stay together without putting themselves at risk; In this way, instead of giving gifts in person, he invited to encourage creativity and hold virtual meetings, as well as to share moments with loved ones through photographs and videos.
On the other hand, in case of presenting symptoms such as headache, joint pain; fever greater than 38 degrees; absence of smell and taste or cough, people may contact medical personnel for guidance. The phone number is 800-2222-668.
However, if the symptoms worsen (shortness of breath, chest pain or persistent fever greater than 38.5 degrees), or if those affected belong to the population at risk, they should go to a nearby hospital. Although, before that, the availability of this will have to be verified.
It is worth mentioning that these recommendations were given in a context in which an increase in positive cases and deaths from coronavirus has been reported, as well as the growing saturation of hospitals that care for COVID-19 patients.
