Matías and Ornella, 9 and 11 years old, have not been vaccinated against the Coronavirus. Their father is a well-known businessman in the local sphere and says that he decided not to vaccinate minors because he believes that they do not get sick and in the case of their children generally do not suffer from respiratory diseases.
Even though an important amount of information regarding the Covid-19 pandemic has been registered, resistance persists among some sectors of society to inoculate themselves; Nor are the deaths of babies, adults and the elderly a sufficient argument to carry out this process.
It would be thought that ignorance could be a justification for many not wanting to get vaccinated, however, the mortality rate, the serious sequelae and the impacts that this health phenomenon had in various areas have not been the necessary justification for this father of family, named David, allow their children to receive the immune system and more so now that the pandemic is over.
According to the latest data published by the government of the Mexican Republic, 79 percent of the adult population in Mexico has at least one vaccine against Covid-19 and it is indicated that it is in the young sector where this lag most exists.
For now, the state delegation of the Mexican Institute of Social Security, IMSS, is announcing that it is carrying out a vaccination day against COVID-19in which First and second doses will be applied for children from 5 to 11 years of age..
The coordinator of Nursing in Public Health of the IMSS, Rafaela Osornio Paredes, reported that the vaccination day takes place in the Family Medicine Units (UMF) No. 7, 45, 47, 49 and 51; and in the Zone General Hospitals (HGZ) No. 1 and 2 of the state capital.
It is also carried out in UMF No. 5 of Soledad de Graciano Sánchez and No. 3 of Ciudad Valles; besides that they will be placed itinerant stalls in shopping malls and public squaresas well as in Rural Medical Units of the Altiplano and Huasteca Zone.
The vaccine will be applied in these medical units of Monday to Friday from 08:00 a.m. to 07:00 p.m..
The brand that they currently apply is that of Pfizer BioNTechfor which reason he called on mothers and fathers to take minors in this age range, so that they apply the biological.
It is necessary present only the CURP of their daughters and sons in case it is the first dose; and the proof of application of the first dose and CURP for the second.
I request that the population, when going to the vaccination unit, maintain sanitary measures such as the correct use of face masks, washing hands with soap and water or using 70 percent alcohol gel, keeping a healthy distance, avoiding touching the face , do not greet with a kiss or hand, and cough or sneeze covering with the internal angle of the arm.
