Washington. El gobierno de Donald Trump instó a los estados de Estados Unidos a prepararse para distribuir una potencial vacuna contra el covid-19 para el 1.° de noviembre, justo antes de la elección presidencial, según una carta enviada a los gobernadores.

Los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) “solicitan con urgencia su ayuda para agilizar la puesta en marcha de estas instalaciones de distribución”, escribió el director de los CDC, Robert Redfield, en una carta enviada a los estados la semana pasada a la que tuvo acceso la AFP.
