Cuba reports a spike of 365 new coronavirus contagions on Saturday and the mayor cantidad of active cases since the pandemic began. Sanitary authorities attribute to the arrival of travelers through the opening of airports and the implementation of biosecurity protocols.
The 2,332 active cases are a record from March when the presence of the virus in the country was reported, informed the Director of Epidemiology, Francisco Durán, in a special comparison on national television to announce the “complex situation” epidemic.
Duran indicates with alarming tone that includes provinces with more than 150 days without reporting cases, such as Santiago de Cuba, Granma and Guantánamo —and the east of the country—, register positives this week.

Cambio hubo reunions, attendance of people without the obligatory barbecue, salads of the house antes time, visits and the end-of-year celebrations aggravate the question. Según Durán accounts for 80 and 90% of those contagiously contacting imported cases.
But it also fails to recognize the mechanism of application of the diagnostic tests since the health personnel were not present in many domiciles for the second test or the check on the travelers.
