Easing of restrictions: de-escalation
Paraguay has implement from May 4 the so-called “Intelligent/Smart” Quarantine, gradual return to work and social activities with social distancing and hygiene measures in 4 phases.

Shelters
The government has adapted existing infrastructure of military bases, warehouses, police stations, and even indoor sports complexes called "shelters" (albergues, in spanish) to accommodate large groups of individuals -who return from abroad (mainly from Brazil and neighboring countries)- including pregnant women, underage children, and the elderly. The government, however, has been unable to quickly accommodate the hundreds of migrants arriving at its borders.
According to the National Secretary of Intelligence, as of May 20, the government had 55 shelters housing 3,549 returnees. Around 70% of confirmed cases are concentrated in shelters.[29]
Most of these facilities do not comply with the MSPBS’s public health protocols of ensuring social distancing and access to medical attention. Groups of up to 160 people are housed in rooms of closely placed bunk beds, and shared spaces do not allow for adequate physical distance.
Impacts
Economy
Paraguay’s economy will contract 2.5% in 2020 due to the halt in economic activities brought on by social isolation measures to contain the coronavirus. The projection is a stark turnaround from the Central Bank of Paraguay in December 2019 estimate of 4.1% growth in the year. The bank’s new estimate also goes further than the International Monetary Fund, which projected in mid-April a contraction of 1.0%.
But the government of President Mario Abdo Benítez has been heavily criticised for failing to support people left without income during the total quarantine. Sixty-five per cent of Paraguay’s workers earn their living in the informal economy and have no access to benefits during the coronavirus crisis.
Event cancellations
As social distancing entered the public lexicon, emergency management leaders encouraged the cancellation of large gatherings to slow the rate of infection, these are a few cancelled or postponed events:
