In March 2020, at the start of the pandemic, the federal government introduced Susana Distancia. Her name echoes sana distancia, “healthy distance.” Expansión described her as “una ‘heroína’ que explica paso a paso las medidas de salud básicas” (a “heroine” who explains the basic health measures step by step). (Video in Spanish.)
Two days later, Expansión called her the heroine with which the federal government hoped to slow the spread of COVID-19, in the national campaign of healthy distance, the Jornada Nacional de Sana Distancia.
