Panama restricts movement by gender in new #coronavirus measures
![]() 1115 Wednesday, 01 April, 2020, 16:25 The government of Panama on Monday announced strict quarantine measures that separate citizens by gender in an effort to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus. From Wednesday, men and women will only be able to leave their homes for two hours at a time, and on different days. Until now, quarantine regulations were not based on gender. Men will be able to go to the supermarket or the pharmacy on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, and women will be allowed out on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. No one will be allowed to go out on Sundays. The new measures will last for 15 days. “This absolute quarantine is for nothing more than to save your life,” security minister Juan Pino said at a press conference. |
