Greetings friends, this is my entry for the 
I live in a sector far from the center of the city of Maracay, in the North of Venezuela. At the moment we have many restrictions for transportation, so it is difficult for us to make purchases. Once a week we go down to the city to buy the things we can't get in my sector.
In this opportunity I show you part of the area of the Coperativa, there they combine the residential and the commercial. The majority of the stores are small buildings that have been set up for sale.
In most of the businesses it is very difficult to maintain social distance, few have demarcated the spaces for people to wait their turn, so it is frequent that people are very close to each other.
The day I went shopping almost everyone was using the mouthpiece and in almost every business they were handing out the antibacterial gel to clean their hands. In my city the contagion has grown alarmingly, every day new cases of Covid19 are reported, but people have to keep on doing their lives and they have to go out and buy what they need.
The businesses are of different types, there are some specialized only in deli and cheese items, some only in meat and chicken, others in cleaning products and food that do not require refrigeration. In all these small businesses you can get most of the goods you need. It is difficult to get species like cinnamon, turmeric, anise, and pepper. These products have to be found in another area of the city.
Right now we have a limited schedule for shopping, which goes from 8.30 am to 2 pm. In just five hours there is a great agglomeration of people who want to do the shopping of the day, so it is much more difficult to keep the social distance. If the authorities extended the hours, it is very likely that fewer people would be concentrated and there could be more control, but these are decisions that are made in a somewhat strange way.
This is the report of one of my shopping days, I thank
Thanks for your time.
