WHO representative in Ecuador announces that a coronavirus vaccine is impossible until the end of this year

At the moment, it is best to comply with biosafety regulations, she stressed.

In the absence of a vaccine to combat the coronavirus, the representative of the Pan American Health Organization in Ecuador, Gina Watson, warned the population not to lower their guard.

Watson clarified that neither in September nor at the end of this year would a vaccine be ready and that it will most likely be by 2021.

She said that it must comply with all quality standards, so that it can be distributed and used massively.

While this is the best thing to do is wear the mask, maintain social distance, wash your hands and use alcohol or antiseptic gel.
