On Monday, in the meeting of the temporary work group for the prevention and control of the coronavirus, the Head of State ratified the importance of effective research to detect asymptomatic patients.
The infection with SARS-CoV-2 showed a rebound in the Caribbean nation during August and the beginning of September, mainly in the territories of Havana, Artemisa, Pinar del Rio and Ciego de Avila.
Faced with this situation, Diaz-Canel insisted on not neglecting prevention measures, not even in those provinces that are gradually returning to normal and do not have cases of Covid-19 for some time.
The Public Health Minister, Jose Angel Portal, said at the meeting the island has 17 local transmission events open, the largest number of them in the capital.
Meanwhile, Ciego de Avila is intensifying the hygienic-sanitary protocols, taking into account the increase in the number of sick people in the last few days.
