This, given that, despite the fact that more than a year has passed since the coronavirus vaccine began to be applied, there are still countries with serious delays in the immunization process, since they have little access to the biological one.
“There are still countries that have not had access to these supplies and that have low vaccination rates. This represents a moral failure of the multilateral and regional cooperation system that we must correct immediately and keep in mind for future emergencies.”
In addition, the president pointed out that as nations it is a priority to face the effects that the pandemic has left until now, and recalled that the health emergency was a trigger to make the health system a priority.
“It is important that we take the time to look back, see the road traveled and remember it so that no one can ever again say that health is not a priority.”
