Latam Cargo continues solidarity efforts
Latam Airlines Group will continue to transport vaccines at no cost in the countries where it operates in 2021, thus carrying on with a measure it first introduced after the arrival of the first shipments of vaccines to the region in December 2020. To date its ‘Solidarity Plane’ programme has transported more than 23.7 million vaccines against Covid-19 on more than 300 flights in Brazil, Chile, Ecuador and Peru, including to communities in areas that are difficult to access, including Easter Island, Galapagos and Iquitos.
Since the beginning of the pandemic ‘Solidarity Plane’ has transported more than 480 t of medical supplies in South America, more than 1,400 organs and tissues were mobilised, and the transfer of stem cells was carried out for ten people with blood cancer. (ah)
