The vaccine developed by Pfizer and BioNTech arrived in Latin America, and the vaccination program began in Mexico and Chile on the 24th, with frontline health care workers taking the lead.
The first batch of Pfizer vaccine officially arrived in Latin America, including 3,000 doses in Mexico and 10,000 doses in Chile, and the first medical personnel received the vaccination on the 24th.
Ramirez said at the hospital in Mexico City that the vaccine was the best gift she could have received in 2020, and that despite the fears of the health care workers, they had to keep going because “someone has to be on the front line of the fight. Ramirez also mentioned that the vaccination will make him safer and give him more courage to continue fighting the “invisible enemy”.
According to the poll, only 36% of Chileans are willing to be vaccinated, and 22% of the population “never want to be vaccinated”. In the presence of Chilean President Sebastian Pinera, who administered the Pfizer vaccine on the 24th, Rickmer said the vaccine is still new, so it is understandable that people are skeptical about it, but also called on people to have confidence in the vaccine and get vaccinated as soon as possible.
Mexico, which lost 121,000 people to Wuhan pneumonia, is the first country in Central and South America to begin administering the vaccine, followed by Chile and Costa Rica, which launched their vaccination programs on the same day. Costa Rica’s President Carlos Alvarado said the vaccine could be “the beginning of the end of the pandemic”.
