Uruguay confirms Covid-10 in country [View all]
Last edited Fri Mar 13, 2020, 07:29 PM - Edit history (1)
Uruguay confirms four cases of covid 19 in individuals arriving from Italy between march 3 and 6.
Two are in Montevideo, the Capitol (and half the population) and two in Salto. I do not know if this is four separate cases or two cases of pairs (family or pareja).
Uruguay has many citizens with Italian roots.
Today Punte del Este turned away a MSC cruise ship. Montevideo is a cruise port.
Edit adding: The two confirmed in Salto are reported to be a mother and daughter.
