ABSTRACT

In June 2022 an international delegation of scientists from the United States, the Caribbean and Africa traveled to Havana, Cuba for a threeday fact-finding mission to better understand Cuba’s COVID-19 vaccine development and vaccination efforts. It was the first time in five years that a scientific delegation with significant US presence had engaged in discussions with medical researchers in Cuba. It also included African and Caribbean members to ensure there was a diversity of scientific and public health perspectives. Together, delegation members represented a broad range of expertise in public health systems, infectious diseases, biotechnology, and vaccine development.
