Perú: Desafíos del desarrollo en el post COVID-19

Abstract: Al igual que el resto de la región y buena parte del mundo, el COVID-19 ha desatado una de las peores crisis que Perú ha atravesado en su historia contemporánea. Como resultado de una superposición de shocks adversos que tiene pocos precedentes, en 2020 se producirá una contracción del producto interno bruto (PIB) de dos dígitos, la destrucción de millones de empleos formales e informales, y un repunte de la pobreza, que revertirá parte de las ganancias de dos décadas de progreso social sostenido.El gobierno r… Show more

“…Women make up 65% of the health sector workforce in Peru and, therefore, are the majority of those affected. Furthermore, despite men (21.7%) have been more affected than women in Peru (17.8%) considering average incidence cases, women have lost their jobs faster (15%) than men and are recovering at a much slower rate (Díaz Cassou et al, 2020).…”

“…Furthermore, the absence of complete household registries, high informal employment and insufficient financial inclusion has limited the effectiveness of mitigation measures implemented by the Peruvian government. In Peru, 52.1% of informal workers perform their work on an ambulatory basis and 24% earn less than the minimum wage (Díaz Cassou, Deza, & Moreno, 2020). Many informal workers must work in public spaces to earn a subsistence wage and are unable to comply with social confinement measures that would mitigate the spread of the virus.…”

“…Aunado a lo anterior, en cuanto a la tasa de letalidad, se observó que la región de La Libertad presentó un 7.51%, Lambayeque con 6.37%, Ica con 5.76%, Ancash con 5.63%, Piura con 5.52%, Callao con 5.24%, Loreto con 4.87%, Tumbes con 4.05%, presentando el resto de regiones menos del 4% de letalidad (3). Debido a esto fue que durante el periodo de confinamiento incrementaron las camas hospitalarias a nivel nacional en un 59,1% y 51,1% en camas de unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI), siendo ocupadas al 100%, falleciendo muchas personas en espera de una cama UCI, los hospitales adaptaron los ambientes de manera improvisada para poder atender a los pacientes que acudían en estado grave y muy grave (4).…”

“…The health emergency created by the COVID-19 pandemic has put the solvency of health services (HS) to the test, regarding not only their ability to face the growing demand for patient care but also in the availability of qualified health professionals (HP), technological means of Epidemiología, Prevención y Control de Enfermedades, s. f.). Peru adopted the health recommendations against the pandemic issued by the World Health Organization (WHO) early; therefore, the high numbers of infections and deaths reported imply a lack of efficacy of these strategies (Díaz Cassou et al, 2020); the general population had difficulty complying with the measures because of the precariousness, inequity, and fragmentation of HS, an economy whose informal sector supports 70% of the national economy (PERUCÁMARAS: Cámara Nacional de Comercio, Producción, Turismo y Servicios, 2020), families living in overcrowded conditions (11.7%), and households without hygienic services (29.2% for metropolitan Lima alone) (Instituto Nacional de Estadística e Informática, 2020).…”
