The Ministry of Public Health is carrying out extensive sanitization actions in Greater Santo Domingo as part of actions to combat Covid-19. Brigades are combing neighborhoods in the Poligono Central and Evaristo Morales districts to fumigate streets, sidewalks, and garbage containers in the area where around 40,000 people live. The area has a large concentration of hotels and businesses.
The sanitization brigades were also driving through the highly populated area of “Pintura” in Herrera and Av. 27 de Febrero intersection with Av. Isabel Aguiar until Km. 9 of the Duarte highway. The brigades also have disinfected the pedestrian bridges on John F. Kennedy and 27 Febrero avenues, and the areas of Nicolás de Ovando, Tiradentes, Duarte, and Mexico avenues.
Navy Captain Luis Manuel Feliz José said the plan initiated by the government has no end in sight and that they will be continuously working in all areas that need to be disinfected, mainly pedestrian crossings, hospitals, the points with the greatest agglomeration of people such as bus stops, passenger terminals, and parks.
