outbreak of respiratory disease Most of them are found very high following the beginning of the semester. is in June until September and will begin to decrease And will add another one in around January until March every year already especially the first part of the first term than in the second term
immunity in children If you look at the long term from lessons to adults Start vaccination today and plan a 3rd dose during the next semester. It would be the best method.
