The Medical Executive Secretary of the Provincial Health System (Siprosa), Miguel Ferre Contrerasupdated the vaccination schedule once morest covid-19.
“We had in force that every person should have five doses, however, today what is known according to the evidence and the immunological curves following the vaccines, is that the booster to receive depends on each person and their vaccination schedule. This is why it is recommended that everyone have the initial vaccination schedule complete, that is, they have received the two doses of the vaccine plus a booster, that is, three doses. From then on, our successive vaccination will depend on which groups we integrate,” said the official.

“Today, everyone who has already started the scheme and more than six months have passed since the last booster should go to get a booster vaccine and especially all those over 50 years of age, people with immunocompromised and pregnant women, since that this particular group is the one at high risk of serious illness and death. Therefore, they will have to receive a reinforcement every six months until the regulations change, ”he stressed.
Along these lines, the doctor remarked that, with all vaccines, the main objective “is to prevent admission to intensive care and death.” “Vaccines once morest covid have shown very high efficacy and, for this reason, since the arrival of the vaccine, the successive waves that we have had have really been with low mortality,” he indicated.
