El acuerdo sobre pandemias es nuestra oportunidad de priorizar a las personas

3 Jun 2025

By Dr Luis Pizarro, Executive Director, DNDi

Más de cinco años después del inicio de la pandemia del coronavirus, los gobiernos han alcanzado un Acuerdo Mundial sobre Pandemias. Han sido necesarios tres años de negociaciones en la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), e incluso una votación bien avanzada la noche en la Asamblea Mundial de la Salud celebrada en Ginebra, pero por fin se adoptó formalmente el pasado 20 de mayo.

El acuerdo no es perfecto. Como cualquier otro tratado internacional, es fruto de un compromiso que resultó muy difícil de alcanzar. Pero en un momento en el que los recortes presupuestarios están sumiendo en la crisis las iniciativas sanitarias mundiales y provocando un inmenso sufrimiento humano, este acuerdo es un salvavidas para la solidaridad y la colaboración a nivel mundial. Y es una oportunidad para que, la próxima vez que se presente la amenaza de una pandemia, el mundo no vuelva a cometer los mismos errores.
