In Mexico, the Pfizer covid-19 vaccine began to be sold and in some establishments they were sold out in a matter of hours. In an interview with Primitivo Olvera, the infectious disease specialist, Alejandro Macías, said that in several parts of the world it was already on sale, but in Mexico it is new, in addition to being together with the announcement of the new “Pirola” variant, “it is a wave that will calm down in the following weeks.”
“This is a fad, there has always been more government vaccination than purchased ones, the best example is influenza, in the Government sector 34 million are applied and in the private sector no more than one or two million are applied, that is the novelty… Of course it is desirable that the vaccines are updated… that does not mean that they lose their effectiveness.”
The infectologist pointed out that it is expensive for Mexicans, but in the United States it is three times more expensive, “whoever can pay it should pay it, it is good protection.” It doesn’t matter what vaccine it is, it is an annual vaccine like the flu and he recommended that if the person contracted Covid-19 in the last six months, wait at least two months to apply it because he has good immunity.
Those who were vaccinated two years ago have a very diminished immunity, probably against some serious illness and have to be vaccinated, it can be applied together with the influenza vaccine without any problem, covid-19 is still present, “it is twice the weight more serious than influenza, it is a worse disease,” he concluded.
