Pan American Health Organization Director Dr. Carissa F. Etienne praised the Government of the United States on the imminent delivery of\u00a0millions of doses of COVID-19 vaccines\u00a0to countries in the Caribbean and Latin America in the coming days though COVAX. The PAHO Revolving Fund is facilitating these deliveries in close collaboration with recipient country governments.<\/p>

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

\u201cWe are extremely grateful to the U.S. for this generous contribution that will surely make a difference in countries that are suffering extreme hardship due to continuing COVID-19 transmission and deaths,\u201d said Dr. Etienne. \u201cLatin America and the Caribbean are the epicenter of this pandemic globally, and donations like these are the most effective path to get vaccines that are unavailable through the market to the arms of people that desperately need them now.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first shipment of 1.5 million doses of the Moderna vaccine is programmed to be delivered to Honduras this Sunday.<\/p>

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

The PAHO Revolving Fund is working with the Governments of the U.S. and recipient countries, as well as the COVAX Facility, on logistics and other relevant aspects to ensure that these vaccines are received promptly, safely and are ready to be deployed as soon as possible.<\/p>

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

Through the COVAX dose-sharing framework, countries can share vaccine doses with others that have been secured either via their self-financed COVAX allocations or through bilateral deals. This will help to increase vaccine coverage, ensure that no dose goes to waste, and help to bring an end to the acute phase of the pandemic. The design and operationalization of the COVAX dose sharing mechanism is being supported by a contribution of $5 million Canadian dollars from Canada.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are advocating for access to vaccine donations through COVAX and directly,\u201d added Dr. Etienne. \u201cWorking with the COVAX Facility, governments, producers and other partners, we have been able to deliver\u00a0more than 21 million doses\u00a0to 31 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, but the reality is that we still face a glaring gap in access to vaccines\u201d.<\/p>

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

In addition to the U.S., the Director has also thanked the government of Spain for donating 5 million COVID-19 vaccine doses for the region, as well as the government of Canada for its $50 million Canadian dollars commitment to expand access to COVID-19 vaccines in the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are hopeful that the generous donations and support by the U.S., Spain, Canada and other countries will be followed by other developed countries in the world, so that we can expand access to vaccines as soon as possible\u201d, Etienne emphasized.<\/p>

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

Countries in Latin America and the Caribbean are consistently reporting some of the highest case counts in cases and deaths around the world, with hospitals at their limit. Only just around 11% of the entire population of the Caribbean and Latin America combined have completed their vaccination schedule, with some countries still not being able to vaccinate more than 1% of their populations.<\/p>

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

Since the beginning of the pandemic, over 1.2 million people have lost their lives and 37.2 million COVID-19 cases have been reported in Latin American and Caribbean countries. According to the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), the number of poor people in the region had grown to 209 million by the end of 2020 \u2014 at least 22 million more than in the previous year \u2014 representing an unprecedented rise in poverty levels.<\/p>\n
