The President of the Andalusian government, Juanma Moreno in a video conference yesterday with the President of Spain, Pedro Sanchez, has declared that Andalusia is ready for the rolling back of the lockdown. The video conference which was the seventh held between all the presidents of the autonomous states and the President of Spain, Pedro Sanchez, is used for each community to put forward their proposals. Juanma Moreno outlined that Andalusia was ready and asked for clarification from the central government about the specific terms needed to start the rolling back of the lockdown. “We have the entire map of incidences from the epidemiological and behavioral point of view that we have had throughout the last few weeks; therefore, we are prepared for any of the actions," he stressed. Regarding the latter, he urges the Government to be "flexible" since the casuistry is enormous between districts and territories. He also stressed coming out of confinement in Andalusia will involve large doses of "responsibility" and with the maximum possible health guarantees.

Juanma Moreno also pointed out that Andalusia would be a prime candidate to be one of the first autonomous states to come out of lockdown due to the facts that

• 275 municipalities of the 786 in Andalusia have had no cases of Covid19

• Roll back could be by province with Huelva and Almeria two provinces which are below the average in Andalusia

• Andalusia has had a reproduction number R below one for the last two weeks.

• Andalusia is the third lowest in number of cases per 100,000 inhabitants.

• The capacity of the intensive care units is sufficient.
