The Minister of Health of the Government of the Canary Islands, Blas Trujillo, has admitted that they "do not" rule out requesting the Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands (TSJC) to require the Covid certificate for interiors again, after they made that request in the past, although it was rejected.
"For us, it is an element that we do not rule out, we can see and analyze how we can implement this tool (...) It is a very useful tool (...)", he added in statements to journalists during a public event in which he also claimed that countries such as Germany --which has a reference center on pandemics-- request it even to "enter a hairdresser's".
Thus, Trujillo has also announced that his department, which "does not" rule out "any type of measure", is working on a package with actions to be implemented depending on the situations that may occur in the archipelago before the Christmas holidays and the high tourist season on the islands.
This package of measures, he pointed out, is expected to be presented this Thursday at the Governing Council of the regional Executive, a meeting in which the Public Health report on the evolution of the pandemic in the islands will also be presented, but he did not advance whether there will be changes in levels, but he did clarify that currently, in relation to the information they have, only 10 percent of the coronavirus cases that have entered the archipelago have done so through tourists.
