“Before the end of the month we will be vaccinating many people under 40 years of age”. The phrase of Minister Daniel Gollan produce true impact: anticipate that a large part of Buenos Aires 40 to 49 will be vaccinated in June So what they have enormous chances of being cited many, many thirty-somethings. In CABA they are a little behind, but it is very possible that the perspective is the same. The key will be in which the flow of vaccines can be maintained and vaccination records. This Monday there was good and bad news. The good news is that Aerolineas Argentinas flight 1062 left for Moscow and will bring doses 1 and 2 of Sputnik, in addition to the active substance to finish manufacturing the Russian vaccine in Argentina. The bad news is that the Ministry of Health reported on Sunday that the shipment of 900,000 doses of Oxford / AstraZeneca did not arrive this Monday, with the active part manufactured in Argentina and finished in Albuquerque, United States. The vaccines would arrive before the weekend.
Gollan, in dialogue with Radio 10, surprised with news of the utmost importance:
- “We are vaccinating at high speed. Between Saturday and Sunday we send more than 400,000 citations, including 150,000 to those under 50 years of age ”.
- “We will be vaccinating many people under 40 before the end of the month”
- “This Sunday 830 people over 70 were vaccinated, who attended without a shift.” This initiative is aimed at convincing those who did not sign up.
- ”Our project is to go with ice cream parlors, house to house, to vaccinate those who did not register. Many lack computers at home to register, others are reluctant. We already saw him with the flu: if we go to look for them, they get vaccinated ”.
- ”The restrictions worked. There is a decrease of a thousand cases per day on average and an interesting drop in the occupation of intensive therapies. In ten days we should see fewer hospitalizations and fewer deaths. We hope that this will happen ”.
- ”The alternative of a few days with confinement, combined with other days with less restrictions, seems like a way to go in the short term”.
- * “The last four months of the year we can live a little more normal life. But this depends on a high percentage of the population being vaccinated. We are on the right track ”.
- ”Pfizer defaulted in almost every country. The amount of doses that that laboratory would have sent us would not have changed our lives ”.
- “If you want to send us vaccines now, they would be welcome, like all vaccines, despite the fact that the Pfizer vaccine presents very serious logistical complications because ultra-freezers are needed to store them. I hope they accept the word negligence in the contract, something that until now they have not accepted ”.
The vaccination horizon for those under 40 before the end of the month requires that the flow of vaccines arrival be maintained and that vaccination records continue to be broken.
The flight to Moscow that left at dawn this Monday, arrives on Tuesday with 100,000 doses 1 and 400,000 doses 2 of Sputnik V. In addition, as is known, the active principle is coming for the Richmond laboratory to finish manufacturing in a rented plant of Malvinas Argentinas, 500,000 doses 1 and 500,000 doses 2. The owner of Richmond, Marcelo Figueiras, hopes to deliver the game before the end of the month.
This Monday, Minister Carla Vizzotti had anticipated that a flight would arrive with 900,000 doses of Oxford / AstraZeneca, with active ingredient manufactured in Hugo Sigman’s mAbxience laboratory and finished in Albuquerque. The departure was delayed due to quality controls from the North American laboratory, but it will arrive this week. Everything indicates that, almost at the same time, another 800,000 doses of the same vaccine will come from Mexico, also with Argentine active substance and finished in Aztec soil in the Liomont laboratory.
All the variables must work – the arrival of vaccines, vaccination, manufacturing – to point to the horizon traced by Gollan: quite normal life in August, that is, in the last four months of 2021.
