The Department of Universal Health and Public Health has launched a massive campaign to give a new opportunity to those who, having received the call or SMS to get vaccinated against COVID-19, have not attended the appointment for whatever reason. People in this situation will receive a text message on their mobile this Thursday.
The SMS includes a link where the person can select, from among four options, the week or weeks that best suits their availability. Thus, to interfere as little as possible in the work activity or in the vacation period, the interested party can express their preference for any of the last two weeks of August or for the first two weeks of September.
In this way, the person who has not been vaccinated against COVID-19 despite having been summoned, will receive a new appointment for any of the weeks that they have indicated that they are available for vaccination.
"This initiative seeks to re-fish those who in their day could not go to get vaccinated because they had some other unavoidable appointment, for health reasons, because they had doubts or, simply, they were confused. This new opportunity should not be missed because the vaccine against COVID-19 works. It is the best way we have to cut the virus transmission chains and save lives, "recalled the Minister of Universal Health and Public Health.
"You have to get vaccinated - Barceló added - for one or yourself, but also for others. Because a person can be healthy, contract the infection and pass it asymptomatically, without complications, but that same person can infect someone vulnerable from their environment.
