Changes

Deaths from COVID-19 refer to the date of death. Were this date not available, the date of declaration to the regional authorities or the diagnosis date was used.

For all variables and phases shown, data are cumulative for the date represented, given the difficulty to display daily data on the scales used.

Seven weeks after the state of alarm coming into force, the Spanish National Government enacted the Downscaling Scheme at the Cabinet Meeting on 28 April 2020. The Ministry of Health published an Order on 3 May 2020 implementing the Downscaling Scheme based on a ‘co-governance’ or shared government decision-making process amongst the National Administration and the Regional Authorities.

Basic features of the different downscaling phases are shown on the maps and graphs.

{{ANETextoDestacado|titulo=DOWNSCALING PHASES|contenido=<u>Phase 0 or getting prepared for downscaling.</u> Common easing measures for the whole country were accepted, allowing for out-of-home mobility mainly in the private sphere, as well as implementing measures on activities with little or no risk of infection provided that security instructions were followed. All public places were provided with visual signs and protective measures during this phase. Some small islands [Formentera in the Balearic Islands (Illes Balears) and La Gomera, El Hierro and La Graciosa in the Canary Islands (Canarias)] were allowed to upgrade to phase 1 during this period taking into account that hardly any new COVID-19 cases were being registered in these territories.
