Isla de la Juventud is one of the territories of Cuba that from this Monday, October 12, goes through the stage of new normality. The Citizen Portal reminds you of the measures to adopt to avoid a re-outbreak of COVID-19
THE NEW CODE AND LIFESTYLE FOR THE NEW NORMALITY
The new normal implies the application of new lifestyles that favor personal and collective health. More self-care and responsibility are required.
Basic measurements:
- Use the nasobuco correctly.
- Wash hands frequently.
- Incorporate new forms of showing affection.
- Increase disinfection of spaces.
- Maintain physical distancing.
-Self-search.
- Faced with symptoms, do not attend work or school.
- Promote the ventilation of the premises.
- Carry out the celebrations in a ventilated environment and with a small number of people.
- Practice exercises outdoors.
- Walk and use the bicycle.
- Avoid contact with people in isolation and hospitals if not strictly necessary.
SUSPECT CASE CONTACTS WILL BE ENTERED AT HOME
Among the decisions informed as part of this strategic update, there are some that due to their scope will have a great impact on the national population. One of them is the entry into the domicile of the contacts of suspected cases.
In this regard, the Prime Minister clarified that of the 5 thousand positive cases to COVID-19 that we have had, in round numbers, more than 115 thousand people have been transferred to isolation centers, of which 4.6% have been positive for the disease.
This, and the accumulated experience, allow us to say that we can apply a different isolation protocol to a contact of a positive person, which does not mean that he will remain at home without attention, Marrero clarified.
He also pointed out that this type of home isolation will have exceptions, such as older adults, or people whose behavior does not guarantee that they can have responsible behavior, among others.
