The Ministry of Health of the Government of the Canary Islands begins this Wednesday, as in the rest of the autonomous communities, to administer the vaccine against covid-19 to minors between the ages of 5 and 11.
At the time of the vaccination, minors must go to their appointment accompanied by their father, mother or legal guardian, says Health in a statement.
The inoculation process for this group will be carried out both in health centers and in mass vaccination points according to the agendas established by the appointment system.
