An increase in the number of Covid-19 cases has been reported by local media this week in Argentina -particularly in the City of Buenos Aires, the Province of Buenos Aires, Chaco, Jujuy, and Tucumán- and some people are beginning to fear an encore of the 2020 lockdown measures in the winter season.
Argentine healthcare professionals are pushing for the return of mandatory facemasks and a speedy update of people s vaccination schemes in light of the increasing number of COVID-19 cases nationwide.
