The Spanish authorities banned anyone from entering or city Totana in the southeastern part of the country yesterday to leave after 55 people were tested positive for COVID-19 in a local bar. The city, which is home to 32,000 people, is one of many to return to Spain in the block as the national struggles for monitoring the contact and get a handle on new outbreaks emerging across the country. Spain was home to one of the worst in Europe COVID-19 experienced outbreaks 270.166 cases and 28.429 deaths since January. The country also had the highest rate reported in the world of COVID-19 for doctors and nurses infection. But after four months in one of the strictest lockdowns of the continent, Spain has lifted its state of emergency on June 21 with a lower number of cases and mortality rates, hire people freedom of movement and the opening of some borders countries again. A month later, Spain is a further increase in cases as well. The widespread neglect of social distancing rules and limited contact tracing prompted spikes in new daily rates of infection that forced the government to place the parts of the country under the new temporary block. While other European countries such as Germany and Portugal have also seen the number of new cases appear every day, they were in the same order as Spain. On Wednesday, were reported 730 new cases of infection in Spain, the highest increase in new cases reported each day from May 8 officials of the Spanish Health on July 20 that the infection rate of more than two weeks infected something to 8, 7 per 100,000 people in July has 3 triples, to 27.4 per 100,000 this week. Salvador Illa, Spanish Ministry of Health said on Wednesday that there are 224 local outbreaks across the country and warned that if they can not be kept under control, is forced to call another emergency. Here’s what to know: How did Spain to negotiate its reopening? When Spain in early June began slowly lifting Lockdown, social distancing they have been put in place protocols. People were required 1.5 m (4.9 ft) apart to remain in public and face masks they were mandatory above the age of six years for anyone if social distancing maintenance was not possible. Bars and restaurants with limited opening capabilities as well as cinemas, theaters and exhibitions. Until June 21, Spain has begun some border controls to lift and then say its border with Portugal on July 1, but experts believe that the rush of the country to re-open for tourism, can lead to increased new infection rates resulted. “We faced a lot of pressure from the tourism industry, because it is one of the most important industries in Spain,” says Dr. Jacobo Mendioroz, the director and coordinator of the Committee crown react in Catalonia. “We quickly all department stores to open, only the tourists who come to our country.” Where outbreaks have occurred? The first outbreaks were in the houses and slaughterhouses in Lleida, a town to the west of Catalonia. Two other northern regions of Galicia and Aragon, also experienced outbreaks. In July, thousands of seasonal workers from Morocco and sub-Saharan Africa are also working positive for the virus as a fruit picker in northeastern Spain. Migrant workers living in crowded homes, making it difficult social distancing exacerbated the spread of the virus. But the infection rate appears to rise especially among young people. The number of people aged between 10 and 19, which will test positive with COVID-19 has increased sevenfold in the last few months. While young people are less likely to stay in hospital you are required when infected with COVID-19 to spread the virus to vulnerable populations such as the elderly, young people about the rise in infection rates among this population remains as potential people. However, younger people socially track is a challenge. “It ‘s hard to tell the young people, the meetings did not have it together,” says Mendioroz. Why fight Spain to get a grip on new outbreaks? Many experts attribute these local outbreaks to a lack of contact tracing. People who tested positive for the virus in Spain, reported that they were providing a list of persons or entities that have come in contact with in the two weeks before his diagnosis is not required. Sonia Ramirez, a Spaniard of 21 years, the northeastern region of Catalonia, told The Associated Press that after a positive test for the virus, which had independent warn family and friends of potential exposure. “They did not ask me who I was,” said Ramírez AP. “She did not ask, even if I worked recently, I had of course.” The virus is also fast to follow as a consequence of failure to people and businesses the spread of social distancing protocols. A club in Barcelona, for example, is that more and more people accused of being allowed in their establishment of regional officials, resulting in 91 people tested positive with the virus (club officials insist they followed the guidelines). Both large cities like Barcelona will lockdown, remains a question. Ada Colau, the mayor of Barcelona left, stressed, however, that the government is considering bringing the inhabitants of the city in some restrictions says it will not return to a complete freeze, as it did in March. The upward trend of new cases have affected neighboring countries. Jean Castez, the new French prime minister, warned that France is forced to close its borders with Spain if the numbers continue to rise. “This is a problem that follow closely,” said Castez when visiting Prades a French town on the border of Spain. What can other countries learn? Although other countries from Spain to learn the error with the search for contacts and board too fast opening Mendioroz says that the key to the spread of the virus to contain a clear communication with the public about the pandemic. “We were not able to communicate well, that this pandemic will last long and that security measures should be implemented at any time,” he says. “I think the more we can communicate that the pandemic can be maintained through collective responses, rather than of safe behavior, comply with authoritarian measures, the more people that way.” Copyright Picture of Paco Freire-Getty
