Strengthening Capacities for Comprehensive Containment, Mitigation and Surveillance in Response to COVID-19 in Costa Rican Northern Border Areas The recent confirmation of an increasing number of cases of Covid-19 in Costa Rica underlines the compelling need for local action to contain the spread and mitigate the effects of this global pandemic. Due to massive flows of migrants, the Central American region is at a particularly high risk for disease transmission throughout its borders and within its communities. Costa Rica is a major destination and transit country for migrants from a variety of locations, including Nicaragua, Venezuela, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, African, and South Asian Countries. Since close contact with local communities is unlikely to be avoided, disease surveillance and control among local and migrant populations is critical. Any efforts to curtail the spread of epidemic-prone diseases must consider systems of human traffic and migration as a critical realm for intervention and be designed to be replicable throughout the Central American region.
