Haiti - COVID-19 : The Core Group alongside Haiti in the fight against the pandemic
Helen La Lime, the Special Representative of the Secretary General of the United Nations and the members of the international community in Haiti represented in the Core Group (Germany, Brazil, Canada, Spain, United States, France, European Union and the Special Representative of the Organization of American States (OAS)), faced with the progression of the Covid-19 pandemic in the world, including in Haiti https://www.haitilibre.com/article-30626-haiti-covid- 19-daily-bulletin-26-april-2020.html, expresses their solidarity with the Haitian people.

The members of the group call on all Haitians "to join in the fight against the pandemic by respecting all preventive measures and to show compassion towards those affected by the disease."

Although they are themselves in the grip of the pandemic, the states and organizations represented in the "Core Group" are working alongside the Haitian people and their Government to increase the testing capacity of the country's medical system, identify sources of supply of medical and personal protective equipment and mitigate the impact that the epidemic will have on the most vulnerable populations, such as women and people working in the informal sector.

In addition, the Core Group encourages the Haitian government to fully implement the measures adopted to reduce the rate of prolonged pretrial detention and prevent the spread of the virus in prison settings. Recalling that "It is only through a collective and concerted effort, as well as an inclusive and transparent management of the epidemic that Haiti will succeed in minimizing the impact of this crisis on the Haitian people."
