Colombia's border with Ecuador becomes coronavirus priority
by Adriaan Alsema April 2, 2020
Colombia is among the countries that are least affected by the coronavirus in the Americas, but a crisis caused by the pandemic in Ecuador is causing concerns on the border.
With 22 cases per million, Colombia finds itself in the bottom half of affected countries.
Neighbors Panama and Ecuador, however, are among the worst hit with respectively 322 and 166 cases per million.
In the hemisphere, the pandemic so far has hit the United States — whose government was among the latest to take measures — the hardest with 661 cases per million.
