Registration to vaccinate those
between 70 and 74 years old will
begin this
Thursday
in the City.
The next age group, which is
between 75 and 79
, began to be vaccinated this Wednesday.
And they also continued with those who are over 80 years old: according to the data page of the Buenos Aires Government,
114,275
had already been immunized, as of this Wednesday
, while there are another 28,090 registered.
Registration began on Monday for those between
75 and 79.
Until this Wednesday there were 98,000 registered, which represents almost 99% of those who are included in that age group, according to the Buenos Aires Department of Statistics and Censuses.
And as of Wednesday afternoon, more than 10,000 shifts had been awarded.
Since when can those between 70 and 75 years old register?
Starting

How can you make an appointment?
To register, the Buenos Aires Ministry of Health announced that people must enter the City's website and complete the form with their personal data.
Those who have difficulty doing it through a web page can also contact
the number 147.
Enrollment can be done by each person or referred to a family member.
Shift confirmation
Then a link is sent via email, SMS or WhatsApp, so that people can enter and choose
the day, time and place of the vaccination closest to their home.
Once this step is completed, a shift confirmation is sent through the communication channels that each one declared.
What to do on the day of the shift?
On the day of the vaccination, the neighbor who is summoned must present himself with his ID at the center on the day and time indicated in the shift and await the call from the health team to receive the vaccine.
After receiving the dose, you
will have to spend half an hour under observation
.

How does the
process go on?
Once this period has elapsed, the neighbor will be given the corresponding certificate and he / she will be able to return home.
What about the second dose
Each neighbor will be contacted again in order to assign the turn for the application of
the second dose,
which can be given after an interval of 12 weeks.
As ordered by the Federal Health Council, the second application of the COVID-19 vaccine is made from an interval of
12 weeks after the first dose
.
This decision was made throughout the country to vaccinate more people in less time, due to the lack of vaccines.
Vaccination in nursing homes
The City Government reported that it is developing a door-to-door operation.
Until this Wednesday they managed to vaccinate the residents of
453 establishments, out
of a total of 498. They hope to finish the vaccination in the coming days.
For their part, nursing home workers have access to vaccination as health personnel.
There residents are vaccinated regardless of their age.
How do you follow the vaccination plan?
The Buenos Aires government, according to what the national government set, has almost completed
stage 1
, for
health personnel
.
Stages 2 and 3 are for people over 80, 70 and 60. The latter will be able to register when the previous phases progress and the arrival of
more vaccines
is confirmed
.
Then, in
stage 4, there
is the "strategic" staff.
The City has already vaccinated some
16,000 teachers
, who share that category with security force personnel, among other public agents.
But everything seems to indicate that once the people over 60 are finished,
they will advance to stage 5
, which involves people between
18 and 59 considered a risk group for suffering from previous diseases.
