VACCINATION SCHEDULE

The Junta has announced its outline programme for vaccinations.

Next week, 17th May, they will be starting the under 55s.

2nd week of June they will be starting the under 50s.

This is in addition to the current programme of completing all front line essential workers.

The estimate is that 89% of over 16 year olds in Andalucia will have a total vaccination by the end of July.
This is based on the current plan to increase the number of vaccination sites to 545 with 911 teams of paramedics.

They plan to receive around 600,000 vaccines per week in Andalucia during the rest of May, 500,000 from Pfizer.
The total should rise to 800,000 per week in June.

This week vaccinations are taking place for people under 55.

People under 60 who received the AZ vaccine are now being offered the Pfizer vaccine as the second dose, unless they opt for AZ.

Thanks Roger, I also read this in LaVoz, then it got technical Spanish. 😞 Just wondering how I receive the option? My first dose was AZ a couple of weeks ago.

Listening to a Dr speaking on BBC this morning, he was saying it was not advisable to have 2 different vaccines for 1st and 2nd dose.  However, the 3rd one in Autumn, which would be given at same time as Flu jab, could be a different vaccine.
Obviously Spanish Dr's disagree...
