Interesting how several countries hailed earlier this year are now facing a surge of new cases. It's to be expected of course, but at the same time you can't keep everything shut down forever, people have to move on with their lives and for the sake of the economies.

The Uruguayan government was hailed as one of the world’s best COVID-19 crisis handlers. Despite being located between two of the countries most affected by the pandemic—Argentina and Brazil where the cases never seem to end—Uruguay had one of the smallest outbreaks in the region, and the authorities avoided a mandatory quarantine.
In September, the British Medical Journal published an article under the headline: “Uruguay Is Winning Against COVID-19.”
The miracle did not last. A few months later, cases are increasing by the hundreds every day and experts fear that it will not be long before Uruguay, which once felt prepared, finds that the pandemic is out of control.
