18 MAR 2021 (09:40) 💉 'The National COE announced new measures to enter the country.- "Those who carry a vaccination card against Covid-19 will no longer need a PCR test. 👩🔬
This was reported by the president of the National Emergency Operations Committee (COE), Juan Zapata, after a meeting of that body in which educational and air travel issues were analyzed, given that the land borders are still closed. 🚧
-Reforms have been made to the protocols for the entry of foreigners into Ecuadorian territory by air. Those citizens who enter and present the vaccination card with the complete doses will be able to enter without presenting the negative PCR test, - said Zapata at a press conference.
Those who are not vaccinated must continue to present a negative PCR test, or antigens, upon entry. But now a maximum of 72 hours before arrival. 😷
The measure, which will take effect from the 22nd to have time to inform consulates, embassies and airlines, is the same for Ecuadorian citizens as foreigners, although the reform, Zapata acknowledged, seeks to encourage international tourists.
In this way, he added, "sufficient guarantees will be generated to reactivate the tourism sector that was compromised during the pandemic."
Like the rest of the world, the Ecuadorian tourism sector suffered a very strong fall due to the coronavirus, which has punished many households that depended on it and companies.
VACCINATED
At the same press conference, the Vice Minister of Tourism, Ricardo Zambrano, argued that, with these reforms, there will be a possibility of receiving the population that has already been vaccinated.
"If we take into account the global figures, there are 83 million vaccinated, and the strategic markets that Ecuador receives from international tourism have a fairly high vaccination rate," recalled the vice minister, referring in particular to the United States where "1.3 million people are being vaccinated every day."
"It is an opportunity for the reactivation of tourism in Ecuador," he said, thanking the COE-Nacional for its decision.
The idea is to expedite the arrival of tourists who are vaccinated. In addition, to help with this to lift a sector that as a result of the pandemic has lost close to 2 billion dollars.
SCHOLARSHIP
On the other hand, the COE also analyzed the situation in 77 schools recently authorized to open a pilot program of face-to-face teaching, where there have been no infections among students, although four teachers tested positive for the virus.
“According to the experts' indicators, it is positive; adequate isolation was established and there were no problems, "said Zapata.
According to this evaluation, the Ministry could authorize other school institutions to enter into the pilot plans with the protocols already established.
Ecuador closed schools on March 12, 2020, and since then only pilot projects have been authorized in a few hundred schools, especially rural ones, where digital education is much more complicated due to lack of infrastructure. "

16SEP26💯%Choneros🚀"On Sept. 16, under the direction of #SOUTHCOM, Joint Task Force Western Hemisphere (JTF-WHEM)
forces successfully interdicted a floating refueling station supporting illicit at-sea drug trafficking operations in the Eastern Pacific.
Intelligence confirmed the vessel's involvement with the Los Choneros violent narco-terrorist organization.
Individuals removed from the vessel have been transferred to Ecuadorian authorities. After clearing the vessel and disembarking the crew, U.S. forces sank it.
JTF-WHEM continues to conduct precise and professional operations to dismantle the logistical networks fueling narco-trafficking in the Western Hemisphere.
"Alongside our Ecuadorian partners, we are relentlessly pursuing narco-terrorists who prey on our citizens,
undermine hemispheric security, and leave death and suffering in their wake. This deliberate, lawful, and precise operation saves lives and makes our citizens—from Ecuador to the United States—safer." -

"It is an absurdity, it is laughable, to speak of such a
pending disaster as "The End of the World."
We are discussing the end of Humanity, or we are discussing the
end of Civilization, or we are perhaps even discussing
the end of some this or that Empire that we mistakenly
believe to identify with.
The end of the world will come when the sun
expands and engulfs it.
Now, is it truly a surprise that our discourse relates
economic tragedy with an ecological one?
That we actually behave as though a marked downturn in
the Market can somehow be compared to the death of Nature?
We are so enamored with our vastness and resource that we have forgotten the lark and the sparrow.
So I say, come armageddon. Come, you horsemen.
Let us speak these things no more."
