The measure was reported by the biminister of the Interior and SEGEGOB, Claudio Alvarado, after a new technical coordination meeting.
The suspension will apply to public and private preschool, basic, and secondary education establishments throughout the Coquimbo Region and in specific communes of Atacama, Valparaíso, and the Metropolitan Region.

In Valparaíso it includes Petorca, La Ligua, Cabildo, Papudo, Zapallar, Quilpué, Villa Alemana, Olmué, and Limache. In the Metropolitan Region classes are suspended in San José de Maipo and Til Til.
