Bad Bunny concert

As a result of the Bad Bunny concert, held last weekend, the National Health System of Puerto Rico identified at least 176 positive cases for Covid-19 among those attending said event.

The Hiram Bithorn stadium, in San Juan, Puerto Rico, was converted into a nightclub, to receive hundreds of people who wanted to listen to the reggaeton.

This event had a massive participation, and despite the fact that the organizing committee demanded proof of vaccination, and the use of masks, this did not prevent the virus from spreading.

Melissa Marzán, the island's epidemiology officer, mentioned that not all the infected cases come from the same event; Well, during that weekend other events were presented.

"We have identified 176 cases, people who have tested positive in the last three days, and when we asked about their exposure history they told us that they were at the massive event," he said.

The expert insists that as a result of this concert, new sprouts will emerge, since they managed to gather at least 80,000 people.

On the other hand, the press spokesperson for the Primera Hora agency, Lisdián Acevedo, reported that the epidemiological protocols were activated in all the cases located.

He also indicated that they were recommended to stay in isolation for 10 days, to the people who tested positive in the tests carried out.

However, not all those infected have serious symptoms to be hospitalized, on the contrary, they only have mild symptoms. So far, Bad Bunny has not given statements to the press of this eventuality.
