  2. Covid-19 is an infectious disease caused by a virus that mainly affects older adults. For this reason, a mandatory quarantine was declared, to reduce contagion, but people ignore it and break the rules. Peru is currently facing a very difficult challenge that we hope it can overcome, and for this, all of us must become aware of this and thus be able to reduce infections.
