COVID19 Vaccination reaches more than four thousand teenagers

It is estimated that 4.8 million adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17 can take the vaccine against Covid-19, during the immunization campaign that has been running since yesterday across the country.

Leonildo Nhapossa, director of the Expanded Vaccination Program (PAV) at the Ministry of Health (MISAU), said that the second dose of the vaccine should be administered four weeks after the first.

Vaccination, is  being administered in secondary, technical-professional and primary schools, as this is where the target group is.

Immunization will also be administered in health units and communities, through duly identified MISAU mobile brigades, since there are adolescents living in remote areas.
