  • Masks Sánchez assures that "soon" the use of masks in the street will be "abandoned"

The issue of the mask has not found an answer in the Interterritorial Council held this Wednesday. After Pedro Sánchez's announcement that "soon" the use of masks in the street will be "abandoned", the regional plenary session did not include this point on the agenda. Health sources present at the meeting have assured that they are working on the norm on the future of the use of this device outdoors,

leaving flexibility for each community is valued

. Although they clarify that it is being worked on with legal criteria and it will be soon when it is elevated to this body.

On the other hand, the situation was reviewed at the weekly meeting of the Health Councilors. From the epidemiological point of view, the trend has been downward and slow in the last 4 or 5 weeks. There are only four communities above the national average. The week before they were 7; therefore, the improvement is maintained. The section that accuses the most infections is the youngest, recently included in the Vaccination Strategy.

At the meeting, it was highlighted that vaccination coverage helps "a lot" and the situation is heading towards herd immunity

.

More than 32% of Spaniards are already with the complete guideline. Regarding the deliveries this week, they add 3.2 million doses. From Health it has been communicated to the autonomies that the last week of the month a large delivery of AstraZeneca is expected, greater than those received so far and whose distribution will be communicated soon to the coordinators. This increase will serve to boost second doses in those under 60 years of age and to complete the 60-69 age bracket. In addition, Moderna is going to increase a little, up to 330,000 weekly, the 313,000 doses that are now received.

On the other hand, it opens the possibility that vaccination in those under 39 years (the recently created groups 11, 12 and 13) that will be established in the next version of the strategy may be developed not only by descending age order, but with overlap between these groups before the arrival of summer and the greater number of trips. From the Community of Madrid, it is requested that in July vaccination be opened to all age groups below 39 years because many people will be taking vacations, and we must try to reach the maximum number of people who are still in Madrid and they have not left.

Vaccination of displaced persons or travelers on vacation has

also

been analyzed

.

The Ministry seeks to differentiate between displaced persons and tourists, a nuance that they consider important due to the impact on the logistics of the doses.

But when in doubt about whether to immunize tourists, it has been stated that it may be submitted for consideration.

In the section on students leaving Erasmus, the Interterritorial Council will let the Public Health Commission propose how to do it.

It should be noted that Madrid has proposed a review of the procedure by which workers who are especially sensitive to covid exposure are determined, now that the AI ​​is in 98 cases per 100,000 and vaccination is progressing at a good pace.

According to the criteria of The Trust Project
