California impone un nuevo mandato de uso de mascarilla en medio de la creciente preocupación de que un aumento invernal de los casos de COVID-19 pueda volver a sobrecargar los hospitales.
La nueva orden del uso de mascarillas en California entrará en vigor en medio de la creciente preocupación de que el invierno repunte los casos del COVID-19 y vuelvan a saturar a los hospitales.
El funcionario expresó que la capacidad hospitalaria sigue siendo un desafío, particularmente en los condados de San Bernardino y Riverside, a lo largo del Valle Central y en el este de la Sierra y el norte rural.
Eso “realmente es el poder de las vacunas”, comentó recientemente la directora de salud pública del condado de Los Ángeles, Bárbara Ferrer. “Pero nos preocupa la tensión en el sistema de atención hospitalaria. Tenemos un problema de personal constante en muchos de nuestros nosocomios”, reconoció la funcionaria. “Así que, si bien no creo que nos golpee con tanta fuerza como el invierno pasado, todo es relativo.
“Incluso un aumento del 10% en el uso de mascarillas en interiores puede reducir la transmisión de casos de manera significativa”, añadió Ghaly. “Utilizar cubierta facial será una de las cosas más importantes para ayudarnos a superar este período de incertidumbre”.
