Class and
Quarantine in Venezuela: A Conversation with Anacaona Marin of El Panal Commune 4/17/2020 Venezuela
Analysis
Cuban Doctors Arrive in Angola to Train 1500 Health Technicians 4/11/2020 teleSUR: "With
that training, "Angolan doctors will visit the families assigned to them, at a
rate of 1,000 inhabitants per professional, cohabiting with the Cubans who
arrived in Angola for the purpose," the Inter-ministerial Commission for
Pandemic Response spokesperson explained. On Friday morning, 256 Cuban health
workers arrived in Angola to support the fight against COVID-19, which has
already infected 19 people in this African country."
Colombia constitutes the main risk factor of Covid-19 infection for Venezuelans 4/9/2020 Gobierno
Bolivariano: "Due to the significant rates of Covid-19 infections from Colombia,
Venezuela will strengthen control measures in the so-called trails to prevent
the spread of the infectious disease. “We are going to be much more diligent,
much more rigid and careful at work in the so-called trails”, said the
Vice-president of Communication, Culture and Tourism, Jorge Rodríguez. He
indicated that, as a result of the entry of people from Colombia, the New
Granada nation appears as “the main risk factor of transmission and infection
for Venezuelans”. From the Miraflores Palace, located in Caracas, he pointed out
that the increase in the transmission in travelers from Colombia responds to the
fact that “this epidemic is not being controlled in any way there, not even
making an adequate registry of cases; which means a risk for the strict control
that we are doing in Venezuela”."
Venezuela Has Done 14x More Coronavirus Tests Than Brazil – 2 New Confirmed
Cases Reported, Total 155 4/4/2020 Orinoco Tribune: "Two new positive cases
of Covid-19 were registered in Venezuela in the last 24 hours to raise the
number of infections to 155, and 52 patients have recovered satisfactorily.
Speaking on the quality of the Venezuelan approach, the low number of cases
detected and the social media negative influencers discrediting Venezuelan
figures on the pandemic, Jorge Rodriguez highlighted that Venezuela has
practiced 1,227 tests per million people and compared that number with other
Latin American countries like Chile with 884, Ecuador with 595, Colombia with
375, Peru with 120 and Brazil with only 86 tests per million."
Venezuela’s
Coronavirus Response Might Surprise You 3/26/2020 Venezuela
Analysis: "First, international solidarity has played a priceless role in
enabling the government to rise to the challenge. China sent coronavirus
diagnostic kits that will allow 320,000 Venezuelans to be tested, in addition to
a team of experts and tons of supplies. Cuba sent 130 doctors and 10,000 doses
of interferon alfa-2b, a drug with an established record of helping COVID-19
patients recover. Russia has sent the first of several shipments of medical
equipment and kits. These three countries, routinely characterized by the U.S.
foreign policy establishment as evil, offer solidarity and material support. The
United States offers more sanctions and the IMF, widely known to be under U.S.
control, denied a Venezuelan request for $5 billion in emergency funding that
even the European Union supports."
Conozca las consecuencias positivas del coronavirus 3/13/2020 teleSUR: "Debido
a los protocolos de contención se han reducido las actividades industriales, y a
su vez se han disminuído los desplazamientos en vehículos y aviones, lo que ha
causado una baja en las emisiones como las de CO2 y dióxido de nitrógeno (NO2) y
particulas finas en China, durante los últimos meses, de acuerdo con organismos
como la Administración Nacional de la Aeronáutica y del Espacio (Nasa) y la ONG
World Air Quality Index."
