H1N1 VAX IN DEMAND. A full line of people waiting for the vaccination, yesterday afternoon on Avenida Corrientes 4400.
The demand for vaccines to prevent a return of H1N1 influenza A VACUNATORIOS is overflowing with private pharmacies. Some do not even attend the phone or they turn to middle of May. Most pharmacies do not have vaccines or if they have a few doses, they disappear from their hands: "We arrived yesterday and 30 doses an hour had gone," said a cashier at the pharmacy and Parana Corrientes Avenue.
The influenza vaccine began to drop in March in the public sector free of health personnel, children under 5, among other risk groups. The rest of the population can be immunized as a payment option: it costs 71.22 pesos and some insurance plans and prepaid cover it. "It is not mandatory," Clarin said Angela Gentile, the national committee of infectious diseases of the Sociedad Argentina de Pediatr?a. Nor is it true "he pointed out that the trivalent vaccine is better than the monovalent. "There is no competition. Because both provide protection against most strains circulate in the winter, which is the A H1N1," he added.
"Both vaccines are safe. In the first instance, should be vaccinated groups at risk. For the rest of the population, is optional. If you do not get the vaccine is trivalent and risk group, there should be no problem. We must follow the frequent washing of hands, have no contact with patients and consult a doctor if you have any symptoms, "said Miguel Angel Schiavone, director of the School of Public Health at the Universidad Cat?lica Argentina, organized a free symposium on Monday at 19 Alicia Moreau de Justo in 1500, Capital.

Yesterday, however, he succeeded: "One of my kids have frequent bronchospasm. I was afraid of not getting the vaccine," she told Ana Rodriguez, 35 years and mother of two kids, Clarin, coming out of a flood the vaccination Corrientes 4400. In contrast, other mothers were not so lucky. "In some places, like Vacumed not attending the phone, and in others as a vaccine is to queue from 6 in the morning and you do not know if they will give the dose. I'm embarrassed," said Ximena N. 40.
Dr. Stambouli Centers shifts were yesterday mid-May, although it was difficult to call. In other places directly responded: "We do not know when to return for vaccination. We will post notices on our website," they said in Cepem a Moron the vaccination. Why should the strong demand in the private sector?

We must wait for further doses and continue to prevention, such as washing hands, "advised the infectious diseases Teresa Zitt. From the Medical Confederation Argentina, Ignacio Berrios said "there was pressure to sell vaccines laboratories that combined with the fear of the people."
