It is also essential to reinforce our Primary Care.
Prevention must be the common premise to fight against the pandemic.
The City Council of Molina de Segura, as you know, made it available to the Murcian Service weeks ago of Health 15 municipal technicians COVID, but it is still necessary for the Autonomous Community to increase the number of trackers ". The Municipality of Molinense has offered to the Ministry of Health municipal spaces that can be enabled for the flu vaccination campaign and thus avoid possible infections, especially among the elderly and at risk.
"This is a possible alternative to health centers, with which to transmit peace of mind to our elders, to whom we are obliged to offer safe vaccination spaces." "I also want to recall that all the municipal social centers of Molina de Segura continue to be closed, in compliance with the agreement adopted by the Scientific Technical Committee at the end of last August.
This closure will be in force as long as the weekly Accumulated Incidence continues to be above 120 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.
This means that no type of meeting and activity can be held inside these municipally-owned premises.
" Esther Clavero concluded by noting that "in these moments when we are facing an unprecedented health emergency, we must prioritize the common good and the health of our citizens, especially the elderly or the most vulnerable.
We must rigorously comply with all the prevention measures in place and continue to be proactive in the fight against the disease.
Only by intensifying these measures to the maximum will we be able to break the chain and limit the transmission of the virus.
If the number of infections continues to grow, we will be heading for an inevitable confinement territorial since the measures adopted are much more restrictive, with the corresponding social and economic damage ".
