Gracias AzulOscuro and also Break for the light.
There is some speculation that our infection numbers are higher than in neighboring countries with larger populations because the health system here is a bit more advanced and has been testing more. Even so, our public health system would not be capable of handling large numbers of patients. It is stressed to the limit in normal times. We've also had a significant influx of immigrants from countries with terrible health systems and many immunocompromised people such as Venezuela and Haiti. Most of those are seen in the public system.
The main positive I see is that we seem to have implemented control measures quite early when compared to many countries. I hope that will help. A relatively small population and centralized government are advantages in our case.
