Ribeirao has a vaccination campaign for children and adolescents

Until October 29, the Municipal Health Administration is implementing the national campaign for multiple vaccinations for children and adolescents under 15 years of age.

The campaign’s “D” day is scheduled for October 16th. In Ribeirão Preto, 36 vaccination centers will be opened to apply the vaccines that make up the national vaccination calendar for children and adolescents.

The campaign aims to provide access to all vaccines in the national calendar and update the vaccination schedule for this age group so that there is an increase in the coverage of vaccines necessary to control, eliminate and eliminate vaccine-preventable diseases.

Vaccines that will be available at campaign sites include: BCG, Hepatitis A and B, Penta (DTP/Hib/Hep B), 10-valent Pneumococcal, VIP (inactivated polio vaccine), VRH (human rotavirus vaccine), meningococcal C (conjugate), VOP (oral polio vaccine), yellow fever, triple viral (measles, rubella, mumps), tetralogy (measles, rubella, mumps, chickenpox), DTP (trivalent bacteria), chickenpox and neoplasm virus Tetravalent HPV (human papillomavirus).

It is important to take all children and adolescents to any of the 36 vaccination rooms in Ribeirão Preto to check the vaccine wallet, because even if it is thought to be up-to-date, there may be changes to the vaccination schedule.

The opening hours of the vaccination centers vary. See the list of vaccination rooms below:
