Member of the Covid-19 advisory board and one of the most prestigious epidemiologists in the country, Dr. Ferreccio says it is urgent for the government to give clearer messages to citizens: that the virus is far from being tamed, that vaccines are not going to arrive before April or May and that hospitals now can collapse.

Epidemiologist Catterina Ferreccio, member of the Covid-19 Advisory Board of the Minsal, recommended chileans not to spend the New Year's Eve festivities with large groups of people, and also to “Hold” to travel on the coming summer holidays, still in the midst of the pandemic.
