 COVID-19 update for residents of Huerta Nueva.




From 17th January things changed and new regulations came in to force.

According to the infection rate of your town (500 or 1,000 infections in the last 14 days per 100,000 population) you will either find the perimeter of your town closed or the perimeter of your town closed AND non essential businesses closed.

Here are the two lists of the towns that were affected by the new legislation that came into force on Sunday 17th. These were based on the figures from Friday 15th January. There are new current figures posted below.

The list of "between 500 and 1.000 cases per 100.000 population" are the municipalities where the perimeters were closed.



The list of "more than 1.000 cases per 100.000 population" are the municipalities where the perimeters were closed and in addition to that hostelries and non-essential businesses were also closed, and if the Government authorizes it, there could be home confinement.




Los Gallardos currently has 1.324 cases per 100.000 population so it has a long way to go before its perimeters will be opened again. (This figure has been taken from the Junta de Andalucía website last update 15/01/2021).

COVID update 18-01-2021.

I think it is with no surprise that we see higher numbers today on the Junta de Andalucía website. Sadly, since Friday, the only positive number in the towns that I report on is Vera, with 1 more case cured. All other towns report no cured cases.

Due to the lockdowns being determined on the number of cases per 100.000 population in the last 14 days, today I will include the number per 100.000 population.

Los Gallardos - Total number of cases 142 (an increase since Friday of 11), 61 active and 1574.8 per 100.000 (an increase of 250.4).

Turre - Total number of cases 133 (an increase of 6), 33 active and 563.5 per 100.000 (an increase of 169) which puts Turre in to the "between 500 & 1.000 cases" category.

Mojácar - Total number of cases 286 (an increase of 44), 119 active and 1671.1 per 100.000 (an increase of 577.9).

Vera - Total number of cases 754 (an increase of 66), 232 active and 1167 per 100.000 (an increase of 328.2).

Garrucha - Total number of cases 289 (an increase of 25), 91 active and 944.4 per 100.000 (an increase of 271.4).

Bédar - Total number of cases 15 (an increase of 3), 6 active and 617.9 per 100.000 (an increase 308.9) which put Bédar in the "between 500 & 1.000 cases" category.

Other than 1 cured case there is no good news here and I am sorry for that but I am just bringing you the numbers.

As I said on Friday, never has there been a more important time to obey the rules. Not only is non compliance of the rules putting peoples lives at risk, it is also affecting again peoples jobs, businesses and incomes.

PLEASE - Wear a mask, keep social distancing and remember that there is a curfew from 22:00 until 06:00 and that Los Gallardos perimeter is closed.

Stay safe.
