"Panic is also a disease, more serious than the virus itself. This feeling that we have to transmit it to the population because jobs are being exterminated, especially informal ones, people who are informally employed"2. "(This decree) makes the formal employment contract even more flexible. It is a way to preserve jobs, shortening the notice period, allowing people to go on vacation now, which is better than being fired. That is our measure."3. "My complaint is that there are some authorities who are giving too much medicine, which leads to unemployment."
