The experts do not set a date for the end of the use of the mask
The president of the Spanish Society of Preventive Medicine, Public Health and Hygiene (SEMPSPH), Rafael Ortí has spoken about the health situation in our country, where more than 77% of the population has received the coronavirus vaccine. “We are in a moment of transition to normality, although we will still have some time to go,” the expert warns. What’s more, recommends that all vulnerable people receive the third dose of the vaccine.
His words are similar to those of the Minister of Health, Carolina Darias, who went to Cadena SER this Friday and spoke about the end of the use of masks: “Autumn is coming, the flu, respiratory viruses … We are going to go through this process little by little, step by step, game by game.”
“In Spain, as there is a very high vaccination rate, this greatly reduces contagion, but it does not eliminate it,” agrees José Luis Jiménez, a biochemist who is an expert in aerosols at the University of Colorado, and emphasizes airborne transmission.
