Ministry of Public Health Promotes Vaccination Days for Petén Children

Petén, December 14 (AGN).- The Ministry of Public Health and Social Assistance (MSPAS), Through the Departmental Directorate of Integrated Health Services Networks (DDRISS) of Petén, it promotes vaccination days aimed at Petén children.

The Health portfolio reminds that timely vaccination during childhood is essential.

This is because it helps provide immunity before girls and boys are exposed to diseases that could be fatal.

From this account, the authorities indicate that one of the days was in San Benito, Petenwhere parents were urged to protect their children.

Vaccination schedules

To achieve the start and continuation of vaccination schedules, the San Benito Municipal Health District maintains house-to-house vaccination sweep actions. This was reflected in the Los Cerritos hamlet, serving children under 5 years of age, pregnant women, and girls. As well as adolescents with the HPV vaccine to prevent womb cancer at an early age.

The DDRISS Northern Area works with communities and their leaders in coordinating care days.

These programs allow us to establish an agenda that is fulfilled by reaching each community. Especially the most remote and difficult to access, since the most important thing is that each person has access to all the services that are provided free of charge.

Commitment

During these visits to Peten homes, the opportunity is taken to develop educational talks on healthy living habits, delivery of supplements to pregnant women and women of childbearing age.

Likewise, the call to use Health services to have early and timely care is reiterated. This is framed in the work carried out by the MSPAS.
