Covid The Government will study the curfew if the Community of Madrid requests it
Q & A. Can a curfew be imposed?
The insular peculiarity, the citizen commitment or the agility in the application of measures together with the political consensus to undertake them have been some elements that the
Canary Islands
have counted on
to be at this time the community with the least incidence of covid-19 and, for now, the only one that has managed to drop below one hundred cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the second wave.
In contrast, the accumulated incidence of
Navarra
continues to run wild, which on Thursday will make it the first confined Autonomous Community.
The provincial region, with an incidence of 1,002.73 cases, far exceeds the national average in the last 14 days, which is 322.94.
Average that, in addition to Navarra, exceeds
La Rioja
, with 549.56;
Aragon
, 542.94 and
Castilla y León,
503.22 in addition to the autonomous city of
Melilla
, 822.09.
A few days after the end of the state of alarm in nine Madrid municipalities, the Government and autonomous communities continue to seek measures to prevent coronavirus infections from continuing to increase, including the curfew, while analyzing how to stop cases in the university environment.
