Since the vaccination process for the second booster dose against the coronavirus began, the fourth, in mid-October, to date, i.e. in just over a month, there are already 34,504 vaccine doses, basically from this fourth serum already adapted to the new variants, which have been administered to the elderly population of the Integrated Care Management of Albacete, with a weekly average of over 3,000 bites.

This was indicated by the director of nursing of the GAI of Albacete, Juan David Fernández, who assured that by adding the flu vaccines administered to the same groups of people, since the two vaccines were offered in the same health act, the injected doses would exceed 74,000 .

Of this number, most of the bivalent serums already adapted to the new omicron variants put into circulation in recent weeks have reached the over-80s, whose coverage already reaches 65% of them; Another 50% of people aged 70-79 have already received this fourth coronavirus vaccine at their health centers, or specialty center (in the case of mutualists), and the reach of injected serums to people aged over 60 years of age.
