With 20 countries yet to reach the WHO\u2019s year-end vaccination target of 40%, and the Omicron variant now detected in six countries in the region, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) Director Carissa F. Etienne said that accelerating access to vaccines will be key to protecting populations, particularly the most vulnerable.<\/p>

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

\u201cThe arrival of a new variant doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that things will be worse, but it does mean that we must be extra-vigilant,\u201d she said in a media briefing today, urging for continued vaccination and public health measures.<\/p>\n

Over 782,655 new COVID infections and 10,950 deaths were reported in the Americas last week, yet just 55% of people in Latin America and the Caribbean have been fully vaccinated. In some countries, including Guatemala, Haiti, Jamaica, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines, coverage remains much lower.<\/p>

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

While the region is \u201cracing to get people protected from this virus,\u201d the PAHO Director called for a long-term strategy that takes into account the duration of protection of the vaccines, their impact on different age groups, and the behavior of new variants.<\/p>

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

With 1.6 million doses of COVID vaccine arriving in the region this week and more expected to follow, it is crucial that \u201cvulnerable groups like our indigenous peoples, the elderly and those with existing conditions that leave them at higher risk of severe COVID should be first in line,\u201d Dr. Etienne said.<\/p>\n

However, in countries with high overall coverage, rates of vaccination among people over the age of 60 remains lower. And in countries where vaccination is further behind, healthy people are also being protected first.<\/p>

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

\u201cThis lack of prioritization is perilous because it keeps our elderly vulnerable and our health systems at risk,\u201d the Director added.<\/p>\n

Dr. Etienne also highlighted the importance of ensuring long-term, sustainable access to vaccines, emphasizing the crucial role of PAHO\u2019s Revolving Fund \u2013 a vaccine purchasing mechanism that has already secured more than US$1 billion in routine vaccines for the region this year.<\/p>

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

\u201cBy using our Revolving Fund, countries are guaranteed access to quality-assured vaccines at fair prices through a transparent mechanism,\u201d the Director said.<\/p>

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

As the year draws to a close and countries deploy doses to reach the WHO\u2019s year-end targets, the Director called for equity and preparedness.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need a reliable supply of doses so that our COVID vaccination campaigns do not widen the inequities that have long divided our region,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Over the past week, COVID cases have increased in Canada and parts of Mexico, as well as in the South American countries of Bolivia, Peru, and Colombia. In the Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago continues to experience jumps in COVID cases, hospitalizations, and deaths. Other smaller islands like the Cayman Islands are also witnessing increases in COVID infections.<\/p>\n

With the exception of Panama, Central America is experiencing a decline in infections, and drops are also being seen in Ecuador, Chile, and Argentina.<\/p>\n
