Thanks in large part to its proactive nationwide response and its comprehensive public health system, Costa Rica has managed to flatten the coronavirus curve. Costa Rica has registered 11 consecutive decreases in known active coronavirus cases. At no point have the country's health services been overwhelmed due to the pandemic. It's too soon to celebrate; worst-case projections show how the situation could collapse by July. It's our shared responsibility to help avoid that. I hope our coverage has been useful during this crisis.
