The proposal was discussed at the third meeting of the Federal Health Council (COFESA) who became involved on Saturday and health authorities around the country. Health authorities around the country made an analysis of the current situation and the tasks performed by the national plan to combat dengue. Also discussed the domestic production of supplies and drugs, the winter campaign and the intervention of Chagas.
The meeting took place in Resistance, and was chaired by the Minister of Health of the Nation, Juan Manzur, together with the holders of the health portfolio in Argentina. At the close of the meeting, announced the endorsement of the proposal for the last weekend of May a national immunization days against influenza A (H1N1) targeting risk groups.

The proposal of the minister of national health is to spend on Saturday 29 and Sunday May 30 to reinforce the campaign in winter 2010. The goal is for that weekend VACUNATORIOS are open across the country, to apply doses in hospitals and clinics, and vaccination has brigades in public places. In addition, summon the prepaid and other entities, both public and private, to join the initiative.

In relation to the vaccination campaign against influenza A virus H1N1, Health Minister of the province of Neuqu?n, Daniel Vincent, said the province has good rates on the implementation of the monovalent vaccine.

He stressed that all flu vaccine that were applied "are effective, and taking into account that for this winter season is expected that the virus is circulating in most of the influenza A, we consider it necessary that all those groups comprising the risks apply. "

And he said that "in May to start the intensive campaign. We are very satisfied, but trying to make a final push to reach the end of May with the largest number of people immunized."

The meeting also took stock of the national campaign to combat dengue, which this year has reduced the number of cases of the disease by 96 percent compared with more than 26,000 who had registered in 2009.

In addition, we analyzed a proposal for work to address the problem of Chagas. There was a presentation by the National Health Laboratories and Institutes (ANLIS), which showed the progress of the national blood plan and a statement on the health situation in Chaco.
