Health reminds the population of the importance of getting vaccinated. Vaccination is the best tool to prevent infectious diseases and is one of the public health measures that has saved more lives throughout history. In addition, it is also an act of solidarity, which protects not only the person who is vaccinated but also his or her family and the rest of the community; this is known as community immunity.

In the case of the most vulnerable people (the elderly, children, people with chronic pathologies, etc.), vaccination helps to prevent possible complications that may arise from a respiratory infection combined with a basic pathology.

Health also recommends the use of masks in symptomatic people when they are in shared spaces to reduce the transmission of respiratory infections and prevent and avoid contagion. It is also recommended to maintain a safe distance and proper hand hygiene.
