The confinement measure affects some 3,000 people from San Borondón, Tazacorte casco and the disseminated area of El Cardón, up to the Camino Los Palomares in the north, and is taken in anticipation of possible emanations of gases that are harmful to people’s health due to the contact of the lava with the sea (Gobierno de Canarias, 2021).
