Only 7 countries in the world have recorded more cases of covid than Argentina

Argentina added this Friday 13,549 new cases of coronavirus, according to information provided by the Ministry of Health of the Nation. In this way he exceeded 5 million cases since the start of the pandemic, a figure that was believed to be absolutely distant on March 3, 2020 when a 43-year-old man, recently arrived from Europe, became the country’s first positive.

And much further from January 23 of that same year, when the then Minister of Health of the Nation, Ginés González García insured: “There is no possibility of a coronavirus in Argentina.”
