"No region/nation will truly be free of the pandemic until all nations are free of it. Until an international consensus has been reached and a coordinated operational strategy has been adopted, the virus will find new vulnerable populations and continue to spread. It will neither respect international boundaries, nor be limited/eradicated by sporadic vaccination coverage across populations and countries. It will continue to replicate and mutate to new, unpredictable forms, which potentially limit the effectiveness of current and future vaccines, and further threaten global health security and economic prosperity. Consequently, there will persist a need for restrictions on international travel, variably and inadequately implemented by individual countries."

Os impactos que o fenômeno da globalização carrega podem ser analisados como:

a. De ordem social e tecnológica apenas, ao possibilitar, através da revolução dos meios de comunicação, a intensa integração dos indivíduos.

b. Interessantes, ao observarmos que as sociedades se ajustam à globalização sem disputas, promovendo exclusivamente a interação.

c. De ordem econômica apenas, ao integrar mercados, unir o comércio, possibilitar o tráfego de mercadorias por todo o planeta.

d. Irrelevantes, uma vez que são pouco reconhecidos tanto na organização social como na econômica.

e. Uma questão importante, já que os impactos não são homogêneos e, na amplitude da análise desse fenômeno, há que se observar o grau de integração de países, regiões ou mesmo grupos sociais.
