Horacio Rodríguez Larreta held his classic press conference at the end of the restrictions imposed last Friday and facing the new stage with greater openings but the ban on circulating between 20 and 6.As he had ensured when he suspended the last three days the face-to-face classes, the Head of Government of Buenos Aires confirmed that on Monday they will open schools for students from Garden and Primary to return to full in person.
“The increase in cases stopped, the curve was mesmerated and a slight low can be perceived,” Larreta said when talking about the recorded contagions. The Port official explained that “the average spread dropped from 2,600 to nearly 2,400 and the R was below 1”, although he stressed the need for a “much steeper” drop to advance in more openings.
– The rest of the high school students (3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th), they will take place in virtual mode.- And the same those who attend adult schools, tertiary schools or Vocational Training Centers. — Horacio Rodríguez Larreta ✋ (@horaciorlarreta)

Larreta also confirmed that if official forecasts are met and in the coming days the promised 2 million AstraZeneca vaccine arrives “by mid-June we could have all over 18s with essential tasks or risk factors.” The head of government confirmed, as had been leaked during the course of the afternoon, that for high school the bimodal format will be maintained for 1st and 2nd, while 3rd, 4th and 5th will move to a fully virtual one.” If we can get the cases down, we’re going to keep these openings and achieve more. If the situation gets worse, we’re going to have to take more restrictive action again,” he said.
