摘要

本文概述了新冠肺炎的影响以及拉丁美洲和加勒比地区应对措施的效果，特别关注秘鲁、墨西哥和古巴。由于关于新冠肺炎的文章已经写得太多了，本文的目标是超越已经说过的内容，简要介绍该地区疫情最不寻常和最直观的情况。以秘鲁、墨西哥和古巴为重点，可以突出几个关键问题。古巴拥有模范的公共卫生保健系统和成功的生物技术部门，基本上没有受到第一波疫情的影响，只受到奥密克戎变异株的严重影响。秘鲁和墨西哥在疫情期间遭受了世界上最严重的超额死亡率。这篇文章探讨了这些问题，解释了负面力量的致命汇合是如何给拉丁美洲和加勒比人民带来致命后果的。

COVID-19 in Latin America and the Caribbean with a Special Focus on Perú, México, and Cuba

This essay offers a summary of the impact of COVID-19 and efficacy of the responses in Latin America and the Caribbean, with a particular focus on Perú, México, and Cuba. Because so much has already been written on COVID-19, the goal of this article is to move beyond what has already been said, providing a briefing on what has been most unusual and counter-intuitive regarding the pandemic in the region. Focusing on Perú, México, and Cuba allows the spotlighting of several critical issues. Cuba, with a model public health care system and successful bio-tech sector, was largely spared the first wave of the pandemic, only to be severely affected by the Omicron variants. Perú and México have suffered during the pandemic the very worst excess mortality rates in the world. This essay explores these matters, explaining how a lethal confluence of negative forces came together with deadly consequences for the people of Latin America and the Caribbean.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Developing Societies is a refereed international journal on development and social change in all societies. JDS provides an interdisciplinary forum for the publication of theoretical perspectives, research findings, case studies, policy analyses and normative critiques on the issues, problems and policies associated with both mainstream and alternative approaches to development. The scope of the journal is not limited to articles on the Third World or the Global South, rather it encompasses articles on development and change in the "developed" as well as "developing" societies of the world. The journal seeks to represent the full range of diverse theoretical and ideological viewpoints on development that exist in the contemporary international community.
