The Minister of Health, Carolina Darias, assured this Tuesday that each autonomous community will establish the modality of pediatric vaccination, once it is approved by the Public Health Commission.
This was expressed by the minister in statements to the media, in the moments prior to her participation in the meeting of the EU Health ministers, where she did not clarify whether the Government is in favor of such vaccination being carried out in educational centers. .
Regarding the possible entry restrictions that Spain can introduce with other European Union countries, as Portugal has already done, Darias assured that any action at European level “must be coordinated by the EU” and that, therefore, “Spain will be in what enters the bosom of the EU is decided ”.
The minister also assured that during the meeting the objective of Spain is to “put emphasis on vaccination”, since it is essential to continue vaccinating with the souvenir dose both those over 60 years of age and health workers in the face of the Christmas holidays.
Darias stressed that Spain also wants to emphasize the importance of solidarity vaccination, since “no one will be safe until all humanity is safe” and claimed that the Spanish Government has already donated more than 40 million solidarity doses to contribute to global immunization.
