Spain’s strategy in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic “gives results,” Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said this Sunday, when presenting his country’s vaccination plan for 2021, reports AFP.
Spain recorded just 400 COVID-19 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, on average, over 14 days, compared to 530 cases earlier this month, Pedro Sánchez said after a two-day G20 online summit. .
This is proof that the state of emergency declared last month, which allowed regional authorities to adopt a whole series of restrictions, is working, he said.
“The strategy works,” said the Spanish prime minister.
He added that his country has managed to reduce the number of cases without imposing a second set of restrictions, as is the case in other European countries.
Sánchez described the government’s plan to immunize “a substantial portion” of the country’s 47 million inhabitants by mid-2021. This vaccination campaign will launch in January at 13,000 points across the country.
