For it, people residing in the Community of Madrid who wish to receive the vaccine must meet the following requirements.
Requirements to get vaccinated in Madrid
- People between 18 and 45 years old engaging in high-risk sexual practices and that they meet the following situations:
- Not having received the smallpox vaccine before
- Not having had monkeypox disease
- Not have been in contact with a case of monkeypox in the previous 10 days
- No symptoms suggestive of monkeypox
- Not present some of the contraindications for the vaccines (severe acute febrile illness or acute infection, allergy to any of the components of the vaccine)

Thus, the Madrid autonomy recommends preventive vaccination for people “from 18 to 45 years old who engage in high-risk sexual practices”, an argument that the World Health Organization (WHO) has already endorsed.

Problems making an appointment
But there is a problem, because at the moment there is a lack of vaccines. The Ministry of Health received 1,835 doses from the Ministry of Health, although from the outset they claimed that “at least 6,000 would be needed.” The Community of Madrid has almost half of the cases registered in Spainthe most infected country worldwide (1,656 cases of the 4,298 confirmed).
Given this situation, getting vaccinated today is not proving so easy.

At this time, if we request the appointment, the following message appears: “There is no appointment availability for the service, please try again in the next few days.”
Some users on Twitter have warned that every day, at 00:00 hours, they open vaccination days, which, due to the lack of doses, usually run out soon.
Last Thursday, the Minister of Health, Carolina Dariasannounced that Spain will receive 7,000 new vaccines for this disease next week.
According to the accounts of the leader, this new shipment will be added to the 5,000 that have already arrived and will make the figure in Spain rise to 12,000 doses, acquired by the Agency for Preparedness and Response to Health Emergencies (HERA) of the European Union .
