The government then shut down all schools, shut down the frontiers between Venezuela and its neighbors, and put six states as well as Caracas in quarantine. Marinez was forced to travel on his own and was confined to his uncle's home in a town that is 50 miles from the capital.

Ten years earlier, Venezuela, a petrostate under the presidency of Hugo Chavez, witnessed a decline in oil prices. 2017 was the year that price of a barrel fell to close to $50 from a high that was more than $100 as well as there was a resurgence in sanctions against Venezuela. U.S. instituted wide-ranging sanctions against Venezuela's dictatorial government.
"When the prices of oil began to decline in the early 2000s, there was not enough money to import the products," said Alejandro Velasco, a faculty member of New York University who specializes in Venezuelan political issues, in an interview on the phone. "As a result it was impossible to find money in the real world to keep the economy going."
Venezuela's coffers were already empty after the country spent its most recent oil profits for social services such as subsidised medical, food, or literacy education programs. Chavez was also known to have removed perceived dissenters from the oil sector following an attempted coup attempt, which affected production.
The widespread corruption within the government also harmed the economy, according to Paul Angelo, a fellow at the Council for Foreign Relations who specializes on Latin American politics.
