President Piñera: “It is probable that we will exceed 10,000 daily cases” of COVID
The President Sebastián Piñera warned that in the next few days there will be a peak of COVID-19 infections that might reach 10,000 cases.
The President, who this Monday began the vaccination of the fourth dose, said that “there are weeks in which we have had more than 100 million cases in the world,” later maintaining that in our country “We are around 4 thousand cases, but this number is going to increase.”
“Although Chile is protected, because we have had very robust vaccination programs, personal care measures are taken and we have protected borders, this virus due to its contagious nature is going to spread, “he said.
Regarding that health scenario, Piñera stated that “the number of infected people will increase, but the most important thing is that these infections will be milder.” As detailed by the head of state, “I think it is likely that we will exceed 10,000 cases a day.”
@sebastianpinera by variant Ómicron: “We believe that infections can reach 10,000 and even more and that is why we are preparing.”
