Since the mid-November reopening was announced on Monday, authorities have been working on reviving the hotel infrastructure, employing people and searching for supplies, Tourism Minister Juan Carlos Garcia said.

In a radio-televised speech on Thursday, Garcia mentioned Varadero, which has been called to provide a service with a strict compliance with the protocols while maintaining high quality standards. The minister also stressed the need to generate revenues, as the hotels have become an active source of services to the population.

Regarding the vaccination schemes, Garcia stated that more than 90 percent of the population will be immunized in November, stressing that the decision was based on careful analysis, carried out with seriousness and responsibility.

The executive said that the intention is to restart services with a renewed offer, high quality standards and good levels of satisfaction.
