    The president of the Biotechnologic and Pharmaceutical Industries Group (BioCubaFarma), Eduardo Mart?nez D?az, affirmed this Thursday in the Mesa Redonda TV program that Cuba has sufficient capacities to produce different amounts of vaccines and begin the campaign that will immunize the entire population.

    The specialist said that the four Cuban vaccine candidates are doing well, even though it is not possible to speak of their complete effectiveness until the planned studies are completed.

    ... Another of the potentialities of Cuban vaccines is that they require a freezing temperature of only two to eight degrees, and given the appearance of new variants of the coronavirus, they can include successive booster doses, he stressed.

    Cuban authorities gave an overview of the current state of Cuban vaccine candidates in the Mesa Redonda TV program.
