Costa Rica has so far succeeded in limiting the spread of the coronavirus. In order to keep it that way, health authorities say the country must tread very carefully.
Costa Rica will begin easing some coronavirus measures starting May 1, President Carlos Alvarado and Health Minister Daniel Salas announced Monday afternoon.
Costa Rica's National Emergency Commission urged the population to remain alert and vigilant and to inform themselves through official channels in response to significant weather disruption.
A Wednesday morning fire in Guararí, Heredia, destroyed the homes of more than 530 people, according to Costa Rica's National Emergency Commission (CNE).
