The second phase of the recovery stage of the COVID-19 pandemic begins on Friday

The second phase of the recovery stage of the COVID-19 pandemic will begin in this eastern Cuban province from July 3, the government's temporary working group established to confront the largest health emergency in recent years reported on Wednesday afternoon.

Karel Peña González is 31 years old, is a doctor, a specialist in Anesthesiology and Reanimation

He always wanted to be a doctor, but there was a moment when he could have turned aside to other needs. Karel Peña González is 31 years old, is a doctor, a specialist in Anesthesiology and Reanimation, and works at the Ernesto Guevara hospital, in Las Tunas.

There are no COVID-19 suspects or contacts here.

The Ministry of Public Health reported a 47-year-old man from Las Tunas positive for the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, coming from the United States, which does not change the zero incidence rate of the last 47 days, as it is an imported case with a source of contagion abroad.

In mid-September 1918, authorities in the populous American city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, underestimated the lethality of the infamous Spanish Flu.

The term "quarantine" today lacks the semantic connotation that identified it until a few decades ago. "She is now in quarantine", it used to be said of the woman who was taken in for the six-week rest (also called puerperium) indicated by her doctor after giving birth. The measure is still in force, but the word has fallen into disuse.

Students continues the active health inquiry

The epidemiological surveillance continues in the first stage of the post-COVID-19 recovery in this eastern province, to detect any new case in a timely manner and avoid local transmission.
