The president on Tuesday announced he sought to relax restrictions on more sectors of the economy to the despair of the Colombian Medical Federation (FMC) and other experts.
According to Vice-President Marta Lucia Ramirez, the relaxations of the lockdown that would take force on May 12 would apply to 15 million people, almost a third of Colombias population.
