Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) Director Carissa F. Etienne applauded the arrival of over 2.2 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines procured through COVAX but warned that the virus is surging dangerously in many countries in the region.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

COVAX, the global alliance to ensure equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, has helped deliver over 2.2 million doses to the region so far, including more than 1 million doses that arrived in hard-hit Brazil on Sunday. More doses are expected to arrive this week in Suriname and Belize, and an additional 1.2 million doses have been procured through COVAX.<\/p>\n

But \u201cthe COVID-19 virus is not receding, nor is the pandemic starting to go away,\u201d Dr. Etienne warned in her weekly media briefing. \u201cVaccines are coming but they are still several months away for most people in our region,\u201d she said, urging people to continue to respect public health measures \u2013 masks, hand washing, and social distancing \u2013 especially during upcoming holidays. \u201cPeople cannot let down their guard by engaging in close contact with others.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cAlthough scale-up has begun, we know it\u2019s not enough,\u201d she continued. \u201cWe do not yet have the vaccines we need to protect everyone. It\u2019s what happens when the whole world must rely on too few manufacturers. We must also find ways to share vaccines more equitably among countries.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

As the recognized procurement agent for COVAX in Latin America and the Caribbean, PAHO\u2019s Revolving Fund negotiates, purchases, and handles shipment logistics on behalf of the 36 countries participating in COVAX.<\/p>\n

In the past week, over 1.2 million people were infected with COVID-19 in the Americas, more than during the previous week, while 31,272 people died of the virus, Dr. Etienne reported.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The pandemic is particularly dire in South America, where infection is reported to be spiking in Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay. \u201cIn Paraguay, a majority of ICU beds are occupied, and the health system is buckling under the pressure,\u201d Dr. Etienne said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe virus continues to surge dangerously across Brazil,\u201d she continued. \u201cCases and deaths are increasing, and ICU bed occupancy is very high in many states.\u201d In neighboring Venezuela, infection is on the rise, particularly in the border states of Bolivar and Amazonas. Bolivia has reported an increase in cases in the Pando department, while \u201cICU bed occupancy remains very high in Loreto, Peru.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The pandemic is accelerating elsewhere in the Americas, including Guatemala, where increasing cases and hospitalizations are \u201cstraining hospital bed capacity due to the influx of patients,\u201d Dr. Etienne said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

In the Caribbean, cases are increasing in Cuba, Aruba, Curacao, and Antigua and Barbuda, she said. In Jamaica, cases have risen steadily for several weeks. In Canada, Ontario state has reported increased cases in the last two weeks while the U.S. states of Minnesota and West Virginia have reported rising deaths.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I\u2019ve just described is an active public health emergency,\u201d Dr. Etienne said. \u201cAs the virus surges and hospitalizations rise,\u201d she continued, \u201cwe urgently need to scale up vaccination among our most vulnerable populations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over 155.8 million doses of the vaccine, including the COVAX deliveries, have been rolled out in the Americas, and in the Caribbean and Latin America, immunization campaigns are underway in 33 of the 35 countries that are members of PAHO. PAHO is assisting the two countries, Haiti and Cuba, that have yet to start immunization.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe doses that were delivered are helping us start to protect health workers and other vulnerable communities, and we expect more doses to arrive every week,\u201d Dr. Etienne said, reporting that acceptance of vaccines has been high. \u201cThese WHO-approved vaccines are safe, and they work,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen it\u2019s your turn, don\u2019t hesitate. Get vaccinated.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pointing out the Americas\u2019 long history of successful immunization against polio, measles, flu, and yellow fever, she said, \u201conce our supply increases, there is not another region in the world better prepared to deliver vaccines swiftly and safely.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cOur health workers have special expertise driving large-scale vaccination campaigns that cover diverse geographies.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPAHO has been providing training and technical support to countries so they have stronger capacity to track adverse events, which will be critical as new vaccines are developed and introduced into the region,\u201d Dr. Etienne highlighted. \u201cThis is a remarkable achievement, and a credit to countries for making vaccination a priority and to health workers for their commitment to keeping our region safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also reminded countries of the upcoming March 24 World Tuberculosis Day, a global event to raise awareness about the devastating impact of TB and embrace the WHO goal of eliminating the disease by 2050.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to uphold our commitments to reduce the burden of TB in our region and around the world,\u201d she said. \u201cIf there\u2019s one thing I hope we take from this pandemic, it\u2019s an appreciation for the power of health \u2013 and how good health is central to the well-being of societies\u2026. Equal access to good health. That should be our focus. That\u2019s how we end TB. That\u2019s how we beat COVID-19.\u201d<\/p>\n
