Report SSJ "weak" demand for human influenza vaccine

Authorities attributed the low demand for vaccines to pregnant difficulty involved for the transfer to health centers. ARCHIVE
◦ The answer was as expected
To try to apply the biological to more people, aim to increase vaccination points

GUADALAJARA, JALISCO .- Although it was thought that there would be large ranks of health workers and pregnant women waiting for a human influenza vaccine, following his recent arrival in Jalisco, the opposite is happening, and the demand for organic has been little in health centers, said yesterday the head of state Health Secretariat, Alfonso Petersen Farah, during a Red Cross event.

"I'm still talking of vaccines, we 'flojones', I say clearly, we are strengthening our strategy, particularly for promotion, inviting pregnant women to come to receive the vaccine."

The strategy is to make an expansion of distribution centers and application of vaccines, which so far is 17 with the state agency that counts.

One possible reason that people belonging to these risk groups do not approach, considered the secretary, is the difficulty of pregnant women to transfer to a health center, or care of patients with fever.

The influx has been limited by the two risk groups, both pregnant and health personnel in contact with people suspected of having the virus. And because of the extra vulnerability they present, it is important to go to get vaccinated.

"Yes it is going people, but not as fast as we would like.

Another reason may be lack of confidence in the new vaccine, so Petersen Farah insisted the scientific benefits that have been documented worldwide over the application of biological, and at the same time, prevents further complications associated with human influenza, especially in women in infancy.

There is confidence that even if low demand, people will end up going to be vaccinated, but the important thing, according to the doctor, is to implement it at this time, before temperatures begin to decrease further.

"We want to be vaccinated right now, is much more representative because we know very well that the antibody level is not achieved immediately upon the shot, but it takes weeks to be achieved, so now is the best time to catch the vaccine. "

Expanded vaccination points

Worried the secretariat for the low influx of people seeking the vaccine, already had talks with the Civil Hospital of Guadalajara to employ a strategy to strengthen vaccination of health personnel, but only those having direct contact with sick or suspected of carrying the influenza virus.

The Ministry of Health Jalisco (SSJ) has 17 points vaccination, placed in health centers in the state, but it is intended that in order to reach more people, the vaccine will to apply them in other places of concentration.

"We will be taking the vaccine to take you to places where we have the possibility of convening pregnant women and health personnel as we do with all responsibility that this implies, to avoid the slightest possibility of vaccine wastage.

Do not be fooled

The Federal Commission for Protection Against Health Risks (Cofepris) has said it would be in January when it could possibly release some batches of vaccine against the H1N1 virus, but so far only found in the health sector and for free .

Therefore, Petersen Farah makes an appeal to citizens to not be fooled by promises he sold a vaccine because they are not real.

"In Ocotl?n we supposed to register a vaccine, as we carry out preventive measures, insurance, to avoid this situation continues to report at any other point, there was no product, just ads."

Misinformation leads to negative pregnant women vaccinated against A H1N1

◦ think they can be toxic
Health Secretary reiterated that so far the estimated target is below expectations

GUADALAJARA, JALISCO .- Misinformation about the vaccine against H1N1 virus has caused one of the most vulnerable and priority health care, such as pregnant women, not like to be vaccinated, although the virus has already claimed the female deaths in infancy.

Health Secretary Jalisco, Alfonso Petersen Farah, sadly admitted that since joining the vaccine has not been able to achieve the goal set by the health sector in implementing the vaccine, which, without precise figures, said it is well below the parameters set.

"Yes, unfortunately we have found that our vaccination goals are not at the levels we've been waiting now, the trend is below what we would have liked."

Petersen Farah noted that in the case of pregnant women, concerns about the health of the state sector is higher, and said he is one of the groups that must have constant vigilance and safer care for cases that have arisen not only in Mexico but worldwide.

Although cases of Influenza A H1N1 have been declining, the state official asked the public not to trust, because, he said, this would be the second time that there is a drop in infections, but since there was an increase in previous months.

"We must not lower our guard, how important is that we are currently doing well in all aspects, both in protecting the health of the population, as in the operation of the health system, but under no circumstances should we scale down guard. "

◦ Health Report only two thousand applications of the vaccine
Petersen Farah denied that the lack of response from society either by distrust of the vaccine

GUADALAJARA, JALISCO .- After confirming that in Jalisco will receive 18 thousand more vaccines to prevent human flu, state health secretary, Alfonso Petersen Farah, said that the lack of influx of people from the two vulnerable groups (health personnel and pregnant women) to be immunized against human influenza is not due to resistance but to the poor accessibility of people at 17 health centers distributed biology.

"I would not talk about resistance, I believe that we have not created the conditions for accessing personal satisfactory in the case of hospitals is being strengthened, bringing the vaccine into the workplace.

Petersen Farah denied that the lack of response from society either by distrust of the vaccine, because the dependence and other health bodies such as the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) and the Institute of Security and Social Services Workers (ISSSTE) have the same problem.

"The population is informed, has to do with the approach of the vaccine; unfortunately points of care we set out to answer the strategic measure of conservation are far apart on many days of access, particularly inside the state."

According to the official, recent weeks has created "disinformation" about the safety of the vaccine or its side effects.

According to figures from the Jalisco Health Secretariat, after the first week of application of biological, dependence has vaccinated two thousand people, of which only 300 were pregnant women, representing 15 percent.

Meanwhile, Hector Raul Perez Gomez, infectious diseases and director of the Old Civil Hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde", said the vaccine does not present a risk to pregnant women because it protects both them and their babies.

He confirmed that the biological arrived in Mexico is quality tested by the World Health Organization, so that you can apply with confidence.


Health reported only two thousand applications vaccine against H1N1 virus

Although say it is lack of confidence in the vaccine against influenza A H1N1, the fact is that no pregnant women or health workers have come to ask the biological, as expected.

The final cut of the Jalisco Health Secretariat (SJS) reports that a week after initiating the application in the health centers of the unit have been applied only two thousand shots, and of these, only 15% have been women stage of gestation, ie, only 300 have received.

The figure is far below expectations, said the new account holder of the Ministry of Health, Alfonso Petersen Farah, who said the number expected in this period was to have five thousand vaccines given.

One strategy to follow to try to reverse this trend is that the biological be replicated in other places of greater access to citizenship, as the Western General Hospital, Hospital for Women, Mothers' Esperanza Lopez Mateos "and other hospitals within the state that have optimal conditions to keep the vaccine in a supportive environment.

Petersen Farah emphasized that the vaccine is proven and has been used for six weeks, particularly in the U.S. and Canada. Mexico received vaccines from the same laboratory that received the two countries.

Come more doses

Yesterday I received another 18 thousand SSJ vaccine virus H1N1, which will apply themselves this week, having been reviewed.

These vaccines are aimed at children under 36 months of age who have risk factors, as well as seniors who have vulnerable health conditions.

◦ Only 46 women accepted the application of biological Civil Hospital
Speakers reiterated that the dose is highly reliable because it was manufactured in one of the top laboratories worldwide

GUADALAJARA, JALISCO .- Pregnant women continue to distrust of the vaccine against H1N1 virus, according to the Civil Hospital in Guadalajara.

The director of the Old Civil Hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde, Hector Raul Perez Gomez, says that the hospital had been implemented only 46 shots for pregnant women since 30 November, far below expectations.

As you see the picture, points out, this situation may continue for a couple of weeks, until women gain more biological information.

"It's a poor number considering that it has a significant pattern of women in prenatal care. I think that there is still some reluctance in this regard and of course they have been informed of biological safety.

Of all women who have been given the application of the vaccine in the prenatal care of the Old Civil Hospital, about 40% decided to think and decide later.

The doctor assumes that females prefer to have more information even know if you hear of any side effects who have already received the shot.

Insists that the biological is highly reliable, because it was manufactured in one of the best laboratories worldwide, and after many tests it was found that the vaccine is safe and causes no bad or the woman or her baby.

In addition to this population group, a total of 140 health workers from the areas of Emergency, Adult and Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Epidemiology and special clinics to treat cases of human influenza had been vaccinated against the virus.
Perez Gomez reported that in the past two weeks, three pregnant women have needed to be hospitalized for respiratory diseases strongly suspected to human influenza.

Because in January are expected to lower temperatures, the doctor said that now is the best time for vaccination for antibodies to be created.

No side effects

The 186 vaccines given belong to the 300 received its first delivery in hospital, but according to Perez Gomez, may be received without restriction up to three thousand 500 doses, depending on demand.

"We have not been limited. We offer to receive the following at the time we finish these doses. We deliver the standard of those vaccinated and those that follow will give us. "

Because pregnant women attending prenatal care regularly, P?rez G?mez hoped that as the days go by, women have more certainty regarding biological safety.

It is noteworthy that none of the 186 vaccinated patients found serious side effects.

The director thinks it is better to receive vaccines gradually cool to care network and not at risk of shortages.
