Pendant ce temps là en Amérique du sud,notamment en Argentine ...
Across the continent, Argentina, hailed not long ago a regional benchmark for keeping infection rates low into the summer, is a grim example of why lockdown-reliance is dangerous.
“We were lecturing the whole world : ‘Argentina is doing great,
Argentina is better than Sweden, it’s better than Uruguay, it’s better
than Chile, it’s better than any other country in the world’ …. And now
we are paying the price because we are the worst in the class,” says
Adolfo Rubinstein, the country’s former Health Minister.
Argentina has recorded 1.3 million coronavirus cases and is reporting
around 12,000 a day, more per million people than anywhere else in the
Americas.
Like Colombia, mobility data illustrates why lockdowns failed to stem
the virus’ propagation there. Activity plummeted in March when
lockdowns began but slowly crept up and accelerated quickly around the
two-month mark as people ran out of money and fatigue set in.
