QUITO, Ecuador
Former banker Guillermo Lasso, sworn in as Ecuador’s new president Monday, said he would escalate efforts to vaccinate people to protect them from COVID-19 and work to revive an economy hit hard by the pandemic.
So far, Ecuador has vaccinated just 3% of the total population of 17 million, and the country is struggling with high unemployment and debt levels. Lasso wants his new government to vaccinate 9 million people in his first 100 days in office, and he has reached out to pharmaceutical companies in the United States, China and Russia in hopes of reaching that goal.
“It will not be a government that only promises,″ said Lasso, 65, who was elected in April in his third run for the presidency, replacing President Lenín Moreno.
