Argentina went into full lockdown mode on Friday, with streets in Buenos Aires largely deserted, while workers and school kids in the capital logged on remotely to offices, classrooms and even digital dancing lessons, after a mandatory quarantine was imposed, Reuters reports.

On Thursday President Alberto Fernandez announced the isolation measure to keep all but essential workers in their homes until the end of March in what he called “a fight against an invisible enemy to save lives.”

“In the face of this crisis there is no place for individualistic attitudes, we need to maintain social distancing by avoiding leaving our homes... Faced with this threat, we are all responsible. Our destinies depends on each other.”

Argentina has so far registered 128 confirmed cases of coronavirus, with three deaths. The government has shut borders to non-residents, restricted long-distance domestic travel and curtailed large events.
