The fourth dose of the coronavirus vaccine, for now, will only be for immunosuppressed people
-
This group will be inoculated 5 months after the third puncture
The the fourth dose of the Covid-19 vaccine is already in Spain: The government has just approved it, albeit in a limited way at the moment. After Israel inoculated a large part of the population, our country has chosen to start little by little as it did with the third punctureeven if it is to be hoped that the sector affected by the drug will expand, as has happened today (all over 18s can already be vaccinated).
The Ministry of Health approved it Immunosuppressed people can receive a fourth dose of the coronavirus vaccine 5 months after the third. This is a period of time less than 6 months so far necessary for the third injection, and with it the goal is not to lose the immunity that is obtained with vaccines.
currently, nothing has been said about the fourth dose of the vaccine for those over 65but it is understandable that they are the next group to receive it as they are the ones at the highest risk of serious illness.
The pandemic, far from subsiding, is producing more and more infections. Luckily, vaccines helped mortality to be much lowersince the sanitary pressure in hospitals is stable.
