Bilbao. The Spanish state has destroyed more than six million vaccines against influenza A. A virus much less aggressive than expected and a strong campaign of intimidation has completed a major economic disaster that has cost the public purse of 42 million euros.
According to have advanced from the Ministry of Health, the Autonomous Communities that were the repositories of vaccines, antidotes have been removed that were not used during the past year.
In Euskadi, the Basque Health Service-Osakidetza was stored (February 1) a total of 271,362 vaccines left over from the campaign against the H1N1 virus.
Although the health minister, Rafael Bengoa, said in a parliamentary answer that part of the remaining doses would be returned to pharmaceutical companies and others would be kept for possible contingencies, the fact is, as noted by the Ministry, the Autonomous Communities vaccines have already destroyed.
The purchase of vaccines are made through the Ministry of Health and Social Policy and Euskadi reserved 377,455 doses, which, to February 1, left over 271,362. In addition, Euskadi bought 311,225 antiviral treatments to address influenza A.
But the only money that has been lost has not been destroyed-derived vaccines. The autonomous communities bought at the time, to the alarm created from the WHO and the ministry, masks of various shapes and sizes (even children's cartoons.)
Valencia Health Authorities only bought more than five million masks that would protect the equivalent of influenza in people of all people in the community. The prices of these products range from preventing the euro and a half and three and a half euros, as are simple, with or without valve or with multiple layers of protection.
In addition, masks should add 3.3 million euros invested in health in an advertising campaign that began in August last year to inform and prevent influenza A.
