The flu campaign 2023 is valid for all those people who need to apply a dose and for those who are included in any of the priority groups es free and can be received at any of the Public hospitals of the country that have the doses supplied by the Ministry of Health of the Nation.
The Minister of Health, Carla Vizzotti, started the vaccination campaign 2023 against the influenza virus, through the distribution of a first delivery of 730,130 doses throughout the country, which will be distributed in 24 jurisdictions.
According to official information, 9,300,000 doses of anti-flu vaccine “with the aim of reducing the complications related to the virus of influenza in the risk population in Argentina”. Of this total, 1,500,000 doses correspond to pediatric vaccines.
The doses are aimed at certain age groups or with pre-existing conditions. Thus, those who have priority are:
Those who are part of any of the aforementioned groups do not require a medical order specific for the application of this inoculation against influenza. Those interested in receiving it should only appear at one of the health centers that have doses for the population.
In turn, those who have a prepaid should consult the exact date from flu campaign 2023, according to your provider, since in these cases the period of vaccine application It is not the same as that used by public hospitals and the number of doses they have is less.
Meanwhile, those who do not belong to the priority groups, but for some specific reason need to apply the anti-flu vaccine, they can do it in a private way. To do this, they can purchase the vaccine at a pharmacy and manage the application at the time or at home, at an additional cost.
It is important to clarify that those who get the flu vaccine they will be given the corresponding certificate of inoculation; and those who attend with minors must carry the complete vaccination certificate to add the new record there.
The flu vaccination campaign 2023 does not have, for the moment, finish date and last year, for example, the demand extended until the last months of the year. This is somewhat unusual at the health level given that the flu vaccinewhich is normally distributed between March and April and has as its deadline the months in which cases drop, should have been extended until the end of the year.
The importance of vaccination lies in avoiding serious picturesSince the gripe or flu is a viral disease highly transmissible respiratory According to the information disseminated by the Ministry of Health, “in general, most of those affected recover in one or two weeks. However, it can cause serious complications, including death, to people aged 65 and over, young children, pregnant people and people with risk factors”, and that is the reason why priority is given to These groups.
The Buenos Aires Ministry of Health has a section on their official site to process the shift to receive the flu Vaccine 2023, which is carried out in a similar way to the management that was carried out with the dose against coronavirus,
There you must indicate to which priority group the patient belongs to and, after that, choose the place and date for inoculation.
The user will then receive a email with the scheduled appointment and, in case of having a pre-existing condition, you must come with the medical certificate that proves it.
