It will be aid that is easy to process and adapted to the current situation," the mayor said.In this same sense, he recalled that the Hospitality Office has also been launched, in the Local Development and Employment Agency (ADLE), with the aim of providing hoteliers with information and processing of the different aid and subsidies to those who can choose.On the other hand, the mayor has highlighted the good results of the Community Intervention Plan to fight COVID that was launched in August from the Department of Social Services in collaboration with the Department of Health.“The pilot experience in Barrio Peral was so positive that we extended it to the rest of the municipality.

Currently, we have 39 families that are in confinement because they have some positive among their members and we are providing them with food and cleaning and hygiene products to guarantee that they comply with the quarantine, ”explained the mayor.This Plan is already operating in Barrio Peral, San Antón, the historic center, Los Dolores, Pozo Estrecho, Santa Lucía, El Algar, La Aljorra, and, shortly, it will also be in Molinos Marfagones, Los Mateos and Lo Campano.The mayor thanked the great work that is developing both health personnel and social groups and entities, as well as the staff of the Department of Social Services.

"Between all of them they are managing to stop the contagion curve where the plan is launched," he said.Also in the fight against the coronavirus, the City Council has reorganized its staff to reinforce those services that need it most.
