The Department of Public Health together with the Ministry of Health, carry out a massive vaccination campaign against the flu and COVID-19 for people over 64 years of age

The Councilor for Public Health, Diana Box and the Ministry of Health, in collaboration with the Patricio Pérez Health Center, announce that a massive vaccination campaign will be carried out for people over 64 years of age who have not yet been vaccinated against the flu. Said reuptake is due to the high percentage of people pending vaccination, taking into account that the flu vaccine is a safe and effective measure for the prevention of flu. For this reason, from Health they remind us that it is necessary to get vaccinated every year since the vaccine is adapted annually to the circulating virus.

In addition, the vaccination of the 4th dose of COVID-19 is included since it is currently indicated for unvaccinated people over 60 years of age and who have not had the disease in the last 5 months. Taking advantage of the vaccination campaign for people over 64 years of age.

If considered appropriate, a call for people over 60 years of age will be held soon.

For this, the City Council enables the "Carmen Jalón" Public Library, located at 39 Joaquín Chapaprieta street, from 09:00 to 13:00. The summons will be made through an SMS to unvaccinated people.
