Phase 0: Preparation
This is the phase we’re in now (as of May 4), and it will continue, in theory, until May 10. The main measure here is flexibility when it comes to going out of the house, with some restrictions:
- Timetables. Different timetables have been established for when to go outside. From 6am to 10am and from 8pm to 11pm, people from 14 to 70 years old can go out for individual exercise (while staying within their city’s limits), or for a walk within 1km of their home with a maximum of one person they live with. Those over 70 years old as well as anyone who requires a caregiver, and their caregivers, can get outside from 10am to noon and from 7pm to 8pm. Between noon and 7pm is when kids up to 13 years old have their turn, in the same conditions as previously: accompanied by one adult they live with for every three children, for one hour at a time, staying within 1km of their home, and only once a day.
- Transport. The use of masks is obligatory on public transport, and the number of passengers is controlled in order to avoid large groups and to be able to maintain the proper safe distance between passengers. Sharing a private vehicle with up to nine seats is also allowed as long as all occupants wear masks and sit as far away from each other as possible.
- Commerce. Small businesses can open for clients who book in advance and can be attended to individually, with preference given to those 65 and older. These include, for example, hairdressers, restaurants that serve takeaways, etc.
- Sport. Individual training is permitted for professional and federated athletes.
