The Minister of Health, Carolina Darias, points out that the next challenge for his Ministry is to expand vaccination is to vaccinate minors between six and twelve years. Another challenge is also putting a booster dose, that is, a third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
“The EMA -European Medicines Agency- is evaluating the safety data presented by the Pfizer companies and Moderna about a third dose. It could lead to a modification of the indication of the technical sheet or simply include a text, having the possibility that an additional dose could be administered, “said Minister Darias.
This week Spain will reach 25 million people vaccinated with the complete schedule against the coronavirus, more than half of the population. Health insists that the priority is that, before the end of August, 70% of Spaniards are vaccinated, placing “special emphasis on young people and adolescents before the school year begins.”
“Vaccines against COVID-19 represent a horizon of hope and an opportunity for the future,” said Minister Carolina Darias, while reiterating that the government continues to meet targets on the marked roadmap.
