A series of images made from a drone shows several streets of Mixco, one of the mayor a cities on the outskirts of Guatemala City, empty of cars and pedestrians, as a Curfew was imposed in Guatemala due to the Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic. After the epidemic of Coronavirus reached 18 on sunday, president Alejandro Giammattei issued a special State of Calamity, which includes a curfew starting at 4pm from Sunday March 22, 2020 through March 30th. This measure was declared by the Guatemalan government in an effort to try to stop the expansion of the Coronavirus and minimize the `evolution of the curb`, by ordering all citizens to stay inside their homes after 4pm. The curfew will last every day for the next 10 days from 4pm to 4am, and only Emergency and Security Forces vehicles, and food and medicine motorcycle deliveries will be allow to circulate on the street.
