The data represented in the figure below correspond to the proportion of population “staying put” between March 1 st and June 15 th , namely minimum, median and maximum values obtained from the 25 NUTS 3 sub-regions of the country. For a better contextualization of the information, the figure includes the main key moments associated with the COVID-19 pandemic in Portugal. Figure 14: Proportion of the population “ staying put ” between March 1 st and June 15 th – minimum, median and maximum values of NUTS 3 Source: Facebook's “Data for Good” Ini tiative. Data provided by Carnegie Mellon University. Note: The dates marked on the graph axis correspond to the first days of the month and Sundays. . The following figures show this indicator at NUTS 3 level for the days corresponding to Sundays [Figure 15] and Mondays [Figure 16], since the beginning of March. It can be seen that the days corresponding to Sundays indicate, overall, less mobility of the population than the days corresponding to Mondays. In particular, there is a reduction in mobility levels with the beginning of the State of Emergency on March 19 (maps of March 22 and 23). On the contrary, a progressive increase in mobility has been registered with the transition from the State of Emergency to the State of Calamity on May 3, followed by the first phase of implementation of the deconfinement measures (maps on May 3 and 4), and by the second phase of deconfinement on May 18 (maps on May 18, 24, 25 and 31 and June 1), and with the beginning of the third phase of deconfinement on June 1 (maps on June 1, 7, 8, 14 and 15). 0 20 40 60 80 8 Mar 15 Mar 22 Mar 29 Mar 5Apr 12Apr 19Apr 26Apr 3 May 10 May 17 May 24 May 31 May 7 Jun 14 Jun Maximum Median Minimum % 2March: First cases 19March: Start1 st State of Emergency 3 April: Start2 nd State of Emergency 18 April: Start3 rd State of Emergency 3May: Start State of Calamity 4May:Start 1 st Phase of Deconfinement 9-13 April Limited movement between municipalities (Easter) 1-3May Limited movement between municipalities (1 st May) 1 Mar 1 Apr 1 May 1 Jun 11March: WHO declarespandemic 15March: Schools close 18May: Start 2 nd Phase of Deconfinement 16March: First death 1 june:Start3 rd Phase of Deconfinement
