Representatives of the World Health Organization (WHO), the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and the United Nations (UN), held a meeting with Executive Vice President Delcy RodrÃguez. These officials highlighted the benefits of the pandemic control model, called “epidemiological suppression”, which has allowed the flattening of the contagion curve in Venezuela.
