In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, priests in Santiago, Chile, have adapted by offering drive-thru confessions to maintain social distancing. The Chilean government has intensified lockdown measures in Santiago due to a surge in COVID-19 cases, with over 23,000 infections and nearly 300 deaths. Approximately 80% of Santiago's population will be under mandatory quarantine.

However, a recent call to gradually resume activities led to relaxed self-confinement measures, contributing to a sharp rise in cases.
