The vaccination rate in Spain continues in full swing. According to latest vaccination data published by the Ministry of Health on Monday, August 16, 62.8% of citizens in Spain have already been immunized, that is to say, almost 30 million people. What’s more, 73.2% of the population have already received at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine.
On the other hand, the good results of vaccination do not stop: a third dose of the vaccine increases antibodies by more than 40% in people, according to a study by the Sourasky Medical Center in Tel Aviv. Despite this, there are still cases of people who refuse to receive the vaccine against the coronavirus.
There are also tragic events such as the COVID-19 death of Dick Farrel, American television and radio presenter. Farrel was known for his anti-vaccine position and his constant criticism to the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases of the United States, Anthony Fauci. According to ABCFarrel called Fauci a “crazy liar”.
“I wish I had put it on”
After falling ill and being admitted to the hospital, Farrel died in the hospital at age 65 on August 4. “He texted me and said, ” Put it on. ‘ He told me that this virus is not a joke and said: ‘I wish I had put it on!’”Her close friend Amy Leigh Hair wrote on Facebook.
Farrel had refused to receive the vaccine that protects from the most serious symptoms of the coronavirus. Her friend Leigh Hair also indicated that she was vaccinated thanks to the contagion of her friend: «He was the reason I got vaccinated. He told me that the virus was no joke and that I wish he had been vaccinated too».
“I was one of those people who, like him, had not been vaccinated. I didn’t trust the vaccine, I trusted my immune system. Now I am more afraid of contracting COVID-19 than of the possible adverse effects of the vaccine, and I’m glad I got vaccinated“He told the WPTV network.
