Hoping for the effectiveness of its vaccines and the projection that more than 90% of the population will complete the vaccination scheme in November, Cuba is preparing the conditions to gradually open the borders as of the 15th of that month, according to the state-run newspaper Granma. In its digital edition, the newspaper reproduced this Sunday the brief note from the Ministry of Tourism by which it notified that “hygienic-sanitary protocols will be made more flexible upon travelers’ arrival, focusing on monitoring symptomatic patients and taking temperature. In addition, diagnostic tests will be carried out randomly, a PCR test will not be required upon arrival and travelers’ vaccination certificate will be recognized.” https://twitter.com/JuannCarlosGG/status/1434849170729455635?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1434849170729455635%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Foncubanews.com%2Fcuba%2Fcuba-anuncia-que-en-noviembre-abrira-paulatinamente-sus-fronteras%2F For this reason, the opening of the domestic tourist market will begin gradually, according to each territory’s epidemiological indicators, the source said.

This Sunday the vaccination process against COVID-19 began in the Cuban province of Cienfuegos. The fact would not be a novelty in Cuba — which already has three of its own immunogens approved by the island’s regulatory authority — were it not for a detail: Cienfuegos will be immunized with a scheme that contains a Chinese vaccine. The news that the island would use the Chinese Sinopharm vaccine has raised many questions. What is its cause? Why use a foreign vaccine whose efficacy is lower than that shown in clinical trials by those created on the island? Why use it now and not before?
