7.00 Madrid looks optimistically at Christmas and does not plan to close the December long weekend

The Government of the Community of Madrid considers that we are going "in the right direction" towards Christmas and does not foresee for the moment to close the region on the bridge of December, although it has made a call to "not trust" because "there is still much left" and the evolution of the coronavirus data must be analyzed.

"We are going moderately well towards Christmas, then this is a reason to be calm and we are going in the right direction. However, we must not trust at all," said the president of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, who highlighted that the data of coronavirus are "relatively good" in the Community.

In his opinion, the regional government measures (which include mobility restrictions through basic health areas) "work", although he pointed out that "we should not trust at all", since for Christmas "there is still a lot" and you have to analyze the data every seven and fifteen days.

She has insisted that she is still not satisfied, since the Community of Madrid must continue working to lower the curve, and has recalled her request that antigen tests can be done in pharmacies, dental clinics and also by podiatrists.

The Community of Madrid closed during the All Saints and Almudena bridge to try to contain the expansion of the coronavirus by prohibiting the entry and exit of people except for justified reasons, although it does not plan to do so on the December bridge.

"It is not planned to close Madrid on the Constitution bridge, there will be a long time to reach that bridge. The objective has to be to continue down the curve and do everything in our power to lower it to the maximum and enter December with the better guarantees and with the least possible restrictions ", has commented the Madrid vice president, Ignacio Aguado.

The cumulative incidence of the Community of Madrid stands at 332.23 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the last 14 days compared to the national average of 514.25, according to the Ministry of Health in its daily report.

However, the Community of Madrid has reported nearly double the number of new coronavirus infections, going from 1,217 on Tuesday to 2,271 this Wednesday, of which 1,072 correspond to the last 24 hours, while the number of deaths in hospitals in a day has dropped from 29 to 28.
