At the beginning of the meeting, the member of the Political Bureau of the PCC and Secretary of Organisation, Roberto Morales Ojeda, recalled that just two years ago, at this time, an unknown virus was lurking and it was then the First Secretary of the CCPCC who called on Cuban scientists to have our own vaccines and they did not fail.

«In this spirit and with the conviction that it is possible, the 6th Plenary Session of the CCPCC begins,» said Morales Ojeda, who then went on to review the agreements of previous Plenary Sessions, which are pending or being followed up.
