This was reported by the Secretary of District Public Health, Miyerlandi Torres, who was pleased to achieve that goal. “We sent the Ministry of Health a report of 45,000 doses in the last five days, for which we reached a percentage of vaccination with second doses, for which we would meet the goal according to what we had established.”

It should be remembered that Cali was from one of the country’s large cities that had not reached 70 percent vaccination last week when the Ministry of Health announced the measure.

To reach the goal, the Health authorities focused vaccination on the city’s neighborhoods and on places with large crowds of people, such as recreation areas, market squares, and the tourist Pance River.

Among those that have not achieved the required vaccination percentage and must continue to use the face mask is Cali, where they are at 67 percent. Given this situation, the Secretary of Health of Cali, Miyerlandi Torres, pointed out that they are working to improve the vaccination process so that they can soon adhere to this decision of the Ministry of Health.

“We are at 83.6 percent coverage of the first doses and 67 percent with the complete scheme. We seek to strengthen extramurality and be in the territories where people who have been reluctant to vaccination are. For this reason, it is necessary to be on the street again,” explained Torres.
