The Government of Costa Rica ordered this Monday to apply
telework in the positions that are possible, as well as the cancellation of
massive events such as concerts, in order to reduce the risk of contagion of
the new coronavirus COVID-19, for which there are 9 cases. Confirmed in the
country.
The government's order is for at least the next two weeks,
which means the cancellation of events such as the concert of the legendary
rock band Guns N 'Roses, scheduled for March 18, as well as the motorcycle
stunt event X -Knights.
As for telecommuting, President Carlos Alvarado said that
the order to public institutions is to send telecommuting to people whose
functions can be performed remotely, and the private company is urged to do the
same.
The President of Costa Rica, Carlos Alvarado, announced the
measures at a press conference with his Health Minister, Daniel Salas; the
Minister of Economy, Industry and Commerce, Victoria Hernández; that of Labor,
Giannina Dinarte, among other officials.
"The main recommendation, the way we can
all protect ourselves against the coronavirus, is constant hygiene and hand
washing," said President Alvarado
