Opposition candidate Patricia Bullrich of former President Mauricio Macri s Together for Change (Juntos por el Cambio - JxC) Monday closed her presidential campaign in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA) together with Mayor Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, whom she defeated in the primaries and would now appoint as Cabinet Chief if elected.
Buenos Aires City authorities Wednesday lifted the rule mandating the wearing of facemasks in indoor settings and public transport units effective since Thursday. The measure was taken after almost three weeks of steady drops in COVID-19 infections and thanks to the “degree of vaccination of the population.”
Buenos Aires City Health Minister Fernán Quirós said he believed it was very likely that the fourth dose of covid-19 vaccine would be the last this year and that the next immunization campaign will be ahead of the 2023 fall.
