Puerto Rico government asks Florida festival attendants to quarantine and not to visit family for 14 days


The Guaya Guaya Fest held on Saturday and the Zalsa Fest on Sunday featured thousands of people clustered without distancing and without wearing masks in Orlando as COVID-19 cases continue to be high in both Puerto Rico and Florida.

The event—produced by La Kalle Productions—was supposed to comply with CDC guidelines for social distancing, masks and other protocols, the organizers told El Sentinel Orlando in an interview before the event.
