The Sars-Cov-2 Coronavirus early detection system promoted by the Cabildo to detect the presence of the virus in the island's wastewater has already yielded the first results, which have led the Corporation to ask that precautionary measures be stepped up.
"The report states that there are areas on the island that have high levels of virus remains, so it is necessary for the population to take extreme control measures against Covid-19 in those areas," they say in a statement, in which for the moment they do not specify which ones are the most affected.
In this regard, they announce that "soon" the results of the first analyzes carried out will be presented at a press conference, as well as the actions that are going to be carried out. However, for the moment they advance that the Cabildo has already requested "new neighborhood actions of tests in those areas", and requests "the population in general not to decline in the fight against the Coronavirus".
From the Corporation they remember that although the global data of the island "are positive", they decided to contract this study to be able to "act in advance against a possible uncontrolled outbreak; locating the most complicated areas".
In this sense, the main claim made to citizens is that they "take extreme measures of social distancing, hand washing and masks, and avoid unnecessary meetings, especially in closed places".
Likewise, they insist that this Early Warning service "will continue to monitor Covid-19 in Lanzarote, allowing us to get ahead in the fight against this silent enemy".
