Alarming rise in COVID cases in Chile despite vaccination efforts
Latin American country is in a severe health crisis as ICU units overflow despite successful vaccination run.
March 17, 2021

“Chile has been battling the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic, which has turned out to be far more aggressive than the first one, despite the Latin American nation vaccinating more than one-third of its population.

More than 5,000 new infections have been reported on average daily in the past seven days, with the Metropolitan region, where the capital city of Santiago is located, accounting for 44 percent of all cases in the country.“

Chile Locks Down Santiago With Cases Near Pandemic Worst

Chile in 'critical' grip of second Covid wave despite one of best vaccination rates

March 25, 2021

“On Saturday, Chile recorded its highest number of daily cases since the beginning of the pandemic, 7,084 new Covid-19 cases, breaking the single-day record of 6,938 reported in June.

The second wave is edging the country's health care system perilously close to the breaking point. Critical bed occupancy is at 95 percent, and many medical staff members embroiled in Covid-19-infected wards for a year — sometimes working on complex cases beyond their expertise levels — have taken medical leave because of exhaustion and stress.“

[...]

“For many, the alarming spike in cases contradicts the government’s impressive efforts to vaccinate quickly, administering doses at nearly seven times the rate of Brazil.

Delivering around 225,000 doses a day — mostly of the Chinese Sinovac vaccine — Chile has administered nearly 9 million doses so far, equivalent to 47 doses per 100 people, according to the University of Oxford in England. Only Israel and the United Arab Emirates have administered more. By contrast, the second-highest performer in Latin America is Brazil, at 7 doses per 100 people.”

National mission: Chile hits 1 million COVID cases, slams doors
April 1, 2021

“SANTIAGO (Reuters) -Chile closed its borders and tightened an already strict lockdown further on Thursday to slow the spread of the coronavirus and stop the influx of contagious new variants as cases climbed past 1 million despite one of the world’s fastest vaccination rates.“

Chile's problem may be a defective Chinese vaccine.

Chile's world-leading vaccine rollout fails to halt spread of Covid as country goes into lockdown | Daily Mail Online

"Chile's world-leading coronavirus vaccination rollout is failing to halt the spread of Covid-19 as the majority of the country goes into lockdown, with many blaming the use of China's CoronaVac jabs.

Chile has been using China's CoronaVac vaccine and the Pfizer/BioNTech, and as of March 25, had administered 49.26 doses of the vaccine per 100 people, while the UK had administered 47.62 of its vaccine doses per 100 people."
