- 11 March – After the WHO classified COVID-19 as a pandemic, President Nayib Bukele closed all public and private schools in the country for 21 days and requested the Legislative Assembly to declaring a state of emergency and state of exception, despite there being no confirmed COVID-19 cases in the country.[1]
- 16 March – A diplomatic dispute erupted with Mexico after President Nayib Bukele accused the Mexican government of "being irresponsible" for allegedly allowing a dozen people with COVID-19 to board a plane bound for El Salvador International Airport. Mexican foreign secretary Marcelo Ebrard responded that "all flights to El Salvador, including the one mentioned by the president [Bukele], have been cancelled" while Mexican deputy health minister Hugo López-Gatell Ramírez denied the charge and claimed the individuals were uninfected.[2][3]
