"In the same way I will continue to be at home, I wilꦦl continue to comply with the quarantine and support my country. I want to invite my fellow Colombians to not go out on the streets if it is not necessary. Not everyone has the same benefits and comforts (that is clear), but as much as possible to stay at home.
"And to the Ministry of Health and all the people who at this moment are working day and night to control this situation, I want to thank you enormously on behalf of all Colombia, this is𒈔 braver than winning a Tour and you at this mom꧟ent are national heroes."
