Turisme i vacunació: de la immunitat al ramat al no-res: la llista

While it is perfectly safe for a vaccinated tourist to travel to Jamaica, where vaccination rates are low, the same could not be told for people living, working and serving visitors in such a host country. The travel and tourism industry must work together to address such challenges and rebuild the world step by step. Travel and tourism is an important multiplier in this struggle.

El World Tourism Network established a discussion on why tourism should be seen as a priority factor when rebuilding travel. Rebuilding travel means rebuilding economies what goes way beyond the tourism industry.

Consequently livelihoods in many countries are threatened. It takes more than communication and encouraging words to solve this crisis. It takes for the world to work together. Solidarity with the poor means also security for the wealthy.

Tourism should play a role in overlooking priorities in the global vaccination progress. Donating vaccines to less wealthy countries is a good start, but it has to be done strategically, so everyone will eventually benefit faster.

Encouraging not only for the travel and tourism industry is, that herd immunity has been achieved in 7 countries. Such countries are located in Europe, Africa, and in the Caribbean, and do not include the United States. yet.

It’s discouraging to see that Commonwealth Countries with a direct affiliation to the United Kingdom are seen in the highest category, but also in the lowest one.

For some countries it’s a race to herd immunity and to a life back to normal, for other it’s a fight for survival and to stay alive. Here is where the world is as of yesterday.
