Vaccination Week of the Americas in Cerrillos: Vaccines for Children, Adults, and Pregnant Women

Today people can go to the Santa Teresita hospital, to the health centers, health posts and Maternity Center, from 7 to 18. Look at the schedule for the whole week.

The vaccination campaign in Cerrillos continues. The task is in charge of the Nursing and Primary Health Care (APS) Program of the Santa Teresita Hospital, within the framework of the program called Week of the Americas, promoted by the Pan American Health Organization.
Neighbors can approach and get any vaccine that is missing from the national scheme. This reaches children, youth and adults.

Vaccines are necessary

It is worth emphasizing that vaccines are an effective tool to protect ourselves and the environment from preventable diseases, since they reduce the possibility of the pathology spreading. The benefits are not only individual, but reach the entire community and future generations, because the main objective is the eradication, elimination and control of diseases.

The general vaccination scheme contemplated in the Vaccination Week of the Americas is the following:

  • Children under 6 years of age: to complete the vaccination schedule that corresponds to their age.
  • Boys and girls from 1 to 10 years: additional dose of rubella and measles vaccines.
  • Women between 9 and 17 years of age: initiation or completion of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine scheme.
  • Pregnant women: Influenza, tetanus, whooping cough, and diphtheria vaccines.
  • People with chronic illnesses and adults 60 years and older: annual influenza vaccine.

If the person has any doubts regarding which vaccines they have already received and which are pending, they can check their health history at the care centers.
