For this it has been necessary to pass laws, we have approved two".- "Many have been invited (to be vaccinated) and have not shown up, let's hope they show up. We know that first-line doctors play a very important role as intermediaries and if they are convinced of the benefits of the vaccine and are better informed of the risks and advantages, etc. the message is more easily transmitted to the population".
