This was in Guayaquil, but Charapoto had the same thing happen. One man said he got there at 730 am stood in line til noon, and THEN was told he had to come back another day. They are only giving $60 at this time. I did read that some families would get a full monthly salary of $400...but my "go to guy" said it would be many hoops to jump thru, and not likely to happen soon.
In Portoviejo the military has come in, as they were not staying home. Ecuadors driving restrictions have increased (mainly larger cities) and NO ONE is out in their cars on Sunday. Taxis are allowed to work ONE DAY A WEEK (depending on the number of their taxi permit) And people are only allowed driving privilege one day a week.
Total country is mandated to wear masks in public, most were already doing it here in our small villages. Heard the brothels in Cuenca were asking to be labeled "essential", promised masks and gloves would be worn, but they deemed them NOT to be essential.
Have also been seeing more of this, and art classes online. Unfortunately not all have access to internet. We are all just doing our best to stay well. Stay tuned, the adventure continues.
