Con  base  en  el  análisis  del  Censo  Carcelario  de  2019,  presentamos  la  situación  actual  de  las  PPLs  y  las  condiciones  de  los  establecimient...os  penitenciarios de Bolivia, con énfasis en los aspectos que impactan en la salud. Posteriormente, identificamos   los   principales   factores   estructurales   detrás   de   la   mayor   vulnerabilidad   epidemiológica  y  sanitaria  de  las  PPLs,  no  solo  a  la  COVID-2019,  sino  a  epidemias  en  general.  Diferentes  instituciones  involucradas  en  el  combate  de  la  pandemia  desarrollaron  recomendaciones  para  su  prevención  y  tratamiento  en  contextos  carcelarios.  Considerando  estas  recomendaciones  y  los  datos  de  la  situación  de  las  PPLs  de  Bolivia,  desarrollamos  propuestas  de  reformas  políticas  y  legales  para  reducir  la  vulnerabilidad  epidemiológica  de  esta población. Argumentamos que, mientras algunas son sencillas de implementar, muchas se  enfrentan  a  obstáculos  estructurales  para  su  ejecución,  demandando  reformas  profundas  en la política carcelaria y el sistema penal.

It highlights the critical role of vaccines in saving lives and the challenges in global immunization efforts, especially for marginalized and underserved children. The report emphasizes the impact of COVID...-19 on routine immunization, leaving millions of children unprotected from preventable diseases. It calls for urgent measures to restore and improve vaccination coverage, ensure equity in vaccine access, strengthen primary healthcare systems, and build trust in vaccines. The report also advocates for innovations and sustainable funding to achieve immunization for every child.
