The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has taken an enormous toll on lives, quality of life, and, in general, our way of living. Bringing an end to the pandemic is an urgent need shared by all, from policymakers to healthcare personnel and society in general. To this end, the world needs mass COVID-19 vaccination programs based on multiple vaccine platforms accessible to all and supported in public trust in those vaccines. Consequently, even before the availability of most of the currently used COVID-19 vaccines, multiple studies assessing the vaccination willingness or intention in different countries and regions, including Latin America and the Caribbean, have shown heterogeneous attitudes that threaten the application of the available vaccines and a prompt solution to the crisis...

The article analyzes the discursive constructions that show the configuration of a macro-identity of the Peruvian homeland or nation in the context of the crisis of the final period of the Viceroyalty of Peru in four of Lima’s newspapers that represented some of the dominant political positions: a loyal envisioned newspaper like El Triunfo de la Nación; another with a patriotic position and favorable to the constitutional monarchy, such as Los Andes Libres, whose continuation was the Correo Mercantil Politico y Literario; and a pro-independence and republican newspaper such as La Abeja Republicana. The research maintains that the discursive construction of patriotism started from a purely emotional and affective consideration, in which passion stood out as a guide to that feeling; however, this patriotism could only be guided by the abstract idea of a nation (a territory, a population and an idea) with which the citizens of the arising Peruvian republic should feel identified.; El artículo analiza las construcciones discursivas que evidencian la configuración de una macroidentidad de patria o nación peruana en el contexto de la crisis del periodo final del Virreinato del Perú en cuatro periódicos de Lima, que representaron alguna de las posiciones políticas dominantes: un periódico fidelista como El Triunfo de la Nación; otro de posición patriota y favorable a la monarquía constitucional, como Los Andes Libres, cuya continuación fue el Correo Mercantil Político y Literario; y un diario independentista y republicano como La Abeja Republicana. La investigación sostiene que la construcción discursiva del patriotismo partió de una consideración puramente emocional y afectiva, en la cual resaltaba la pasión como guía de ese sentimiento; no obstante, este patriotismo solo podía ser guiado por la idea abstracta de una nación (un territorio, una población y una idea) con la cual los ciudadanos de la naciente república peruana debían sentirse identificados.

Still without ceasing the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, a new viral threat has now emerged outside its endemic niche in Africa affecting multiple countries and continents. After its appearance in May 2022, a multi-country outbreak of monkeypox disease (MPX) has triggered significant concerns due to its rapid spread and potential for sexual transmission (as suggested by the detection of viral DNA in sexual fluids); this, in addition to the previously known transmission routes described throughout endemic countries of Africa over the last decades or the imported or travel-related cases reported since 2003...

After 32 years of polio elimination in Peru, six sporadic cases of vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) have been reported between 2003 and 2011 in urban and periurban settings. On 21 March 2023, a new case was confirmed in a one-year-old indigenous male infant resident of the district of Manseriche, Loreto region, located in a remote area in the north-eastern Peruvian jungle. The patient developed fever, cough, and weakness in the lower limbs, and had not received any previous vaccinations. Therefore, a sample was taken and sent to the Oswaldo Cruz Institute (FIOCRUZ) from Brazil, given the absence of PCR and genomic tests for polio in Peru. A type 1 VDPV was detected...
