Tijuana.- The influx in the General Hospital of Tijuana on the second day that the vaccines against Covid-19 are being applied in all health centers such as General Hospitals of the Ministry of Health, IMSS, ISSSTE, Issstecali, Sedena and Semar, has been very low.
In these health centers, the first and second doses of the AstraZeneca biological are being applied to those over 18 years of age, as well as the booster vaccine with the same biological.
Minors between the ages of 14 and 17 who do not have their first or second dose are vaccinated with the biological Pfizer; this age group is not receiving the booster vaccine. Due to the conditions of the Pfizer vaccine, six patients must accumulate to expose the biological because its effectiveness time once opened is short.
