The Ministry of Health expands the possibilities of vaccination against Covid-19 with the launch of several points without prior appointment in different parts of the Region, in order to facilitate the immunization of more population.
The Covid Monitoring Committee met this morning to analyze the last epidemiological week and, due to the slowdown in the vaccination process detected in the last week, it has been decided to enable an additional vaccination line for people registered in the Region of Murcia, Without the need for an appointment, at the three points with the highest capacity: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday in Murcia / Nueva Condomina and Cartagena / La Rambla in their usual hours-, and on Wednesday morning in Lorca / Felipe VI.
The Health Minister, Juan José Pedreño, explained that given the influx of people on the coast, an additional day of vaccination without an appointment is also launched on Wednesday in Mazarrón and on Friday in San Javier, both in the morning, to those who have their habitual residence in the Region of Murcia. Throughout this week, and depending on the result and influx of these spaces, it will be valued to open additional days in other parts of the Murcian coast.
The greatest increase in the incidence rate in the last week has occurred in the 12 to 19-year-old bracket, an age that is currently in the process of being vaccinated, which is why Health calls on families to vaccinate their children and protect them from possible infection.
