Buenos Aires: Argentina extended its nationwide social, preventative and mandatory isolation measures until May 10, its health ministry said.
The measures had been in place since March 20 and, prior to the extension announcement, had been scheduled to end on Sunday.
Reuters reported that the country will, however, ease some restrictions such as allowing people to take short walks outside their homes.
Argentina’s health ministry has confirmed 3,780 cases and 185 deaths in the country.
