translated from Spanish: Kicillof promised more openings if cases continued: “They said the Province was going to collapse”

The governor of Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof, announced today that if during the next week the cases of Covid-19 remain low in the province from Monday, November 2, businesses in shopping malls, new outdoor sports and the expansion of private construction will be enabled. 

“If during the next week cases continue to descend, we’re going to move on to a new stage, where commercial premises are going to be allowed in malls, only premises, not food courtesy,” Kicillof explained, Kicillof said there are 15 districts that are at low risk and are able to return to schools with relinking activities, and explained that the rest will do so as cases drop.

“We are looking for ways to return to in person gradually,” the provincial representative said. Kicillof highlighted “the solidarity of the people” during the pandemic and asked not to care for those who want citizens to “lower their arms.” The pandemic is not over, but the first thing we see is the solidarity of our people. Some don’t see them, or they don’t want to see it and they want to put us down,” he stressed, and he said, “They said the Province was going to collapse,” but it didn’t happen.
