Main Objectives and Significance
To honor the memory of the victims of COVID-19. The day also aims to pay tribute to all those affected by the coronavirus, both directly from the disease and from the consequences, such as socioeconomic hardship. It is a day to remember people who have died from COVID-19 and to support their families.
Education and Information. An important purpose of the day is to disseminate information about precautions, vaccination, and health support during the pandemic. It is also a day to raise awareness about new variants of the virus and how they may affect public health.
To support health care workers. COVID-19 Day is dedicated to recognizing the efforts of health workers, volunteers, scientists and all those who have taken part in the fight against the pandemic, helping to treat the sick, develop vaccines and provide information on how to prevent infection.
Unity and solidarity. The holiday reminds us how important it is to work together, support each other in difficult times and act for the benefit of public health. Social distancing measures, compliance with sanitary standards and vaccination have played a key role in the fight against the pandemic.
National COVID-19 Day not only serves as a reminder of the severity of the pandemic, but also an expression of gratitude to all those who fought for public health and encourages continued efforts to prevent new epidemics.
