Referring to Sopemi’s statement, in which he asks which other officials have received the dose and are nevertheless infected with the coronavirus disease. The specialist said it is imperative that the Ministry of Health (Minsa) specify the information.

I think Ciro Maguiña is in them, the other thing we know is that the director of Digerd who was in this too and was sick I didn’t see in detail the whole relationship that I think is circulating, I don’t know, but we launched it communicated because we wanted to know if these people had gotten the vaccine, ”he said.

In any case, it is striking because it is clear that one should be concerned if they have received the vaccine and have nevertheless had a serious disease, which is known to occur, but at a much lower rate”He concluded.
