The Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI) and the government of Honduras have formalized the $35 million financing for the purchase of 2.8 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine.

This financing is part of the Credit Facility for the Vaccine Acquisition and Application made available by CABEI to its member countries for an amount of up to $800 million and which offers very favourable conditions, such as a rate of 1.9% for a 20-year term with a five-year grace period. Honduras was the second country to apply, after Costa Rica.
