The occupational structure of Latin American Countries and worker exposure to COVID

The COVID has spread in Latin America at a later stage of industrialized countries. Even if such states had a better understanding and more available information on how to face the virus, the sanitary infrastructure was less prepared in comparison to the industrialized countries. Latin American Countries (LAC) have a health system with inadequate coverage and an infrastructure deficit. These facts have made social distancing measures the most effective solution to contain the terrible effects of the pandemic.
