The frequency will be established depending on the traffic and number of people, ensuring surface cleaning and frequent contact at least three times a day.
- Ventilation:
a) Adopt the necessary measures for daily and recurrent ventilation of common spaces.
b) Those common spaces that do not have the possibility of complying with the necessary ventilation (fixed window spaces without openings to the outside) should be restricted in their use.
c) The spaces of constant circulation of people must have permanent ventilation.
- Diffuse recommendations from the National Ministry of Health and the local health authority.
