New chaos in the vaccine administration process. The majority of autonomous communities, such as Catalonia, Madrid, Andalusia, Extremadura, Galicia, Murcia or Valencia, have asked that Spain follow the example of Germany and France and allow those under 60 years of age to be vaccinated with AstraZeneca in order to accelerate the vaccination campaign to face the coronavirus crisis and advance the recovery of the economy in the euro zone.In particular, the German Government Minister of Health, Jens Spahn, has already announced that he authorizes vaccination for those under 60 years with AstraZeneca, after consulting your GP. Meanwhile, in France, they will also soon approve the vaccination with AstraZeneca for those under 55 years of age who give their explicit consent. Germany and France intend, in this way, to speed up the vaccination process so that all adults are immunized at the beginning of the summer with the aim of leading the recovery of tourist activity. In both countries they defend that the studies and trials of the European Medicines Agency (EMA, its acronym in English) endorse their proposals, while the Spanish Government follows the statements of both the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and the Minister of Health, Carolina Darias, that the vaccination campaign is well advanced, but the regional health authorities claim to be able to vaccinate children under 60 with AstraZeneca to further accelerate the process Thousands of stopped vaccines Experts are concerned about how they accumulate In the refrigerators thousands of doses of this vaccine are waiting for the Ministry of Health to authorize its use, after having postponed the strategy on at what intervals and who to vaccinate with AstraZeneca for four weeks.The autonomous communities wonder why the recommendations of the EMA are not being followed and the vaccination process slows down. At the current rate and with the brake that has meant limiting the inoculation of AstraZeneca, both regional leaders and experts and scientific societies agree that It is unlikely that 70% of the population will be immunized by July, as the Government had announced. They hope that the position taken by the German and French health authorities will help change the attitude of the Ministry of Health.
