Vaccines in La Bocana today!


Anyone over 60 can get vaccinated here in town today, tomorrow and Monday.



This woman takes your name and they will call to give you the appt time, I added the name of two Bahia Asuncion residents and we will be given a call tomorrow with the appt. time for Monday.







This woman gets medical info for those that are about to get vaccinated.






Here is where you wait to get the shot.









and this is where you sit waiting to see if you will have a reaction.









They are applying a Chinese vaccine called SINOVAC. Everything was incredibly organized. Quite impressive!

VIVA LA BOCANA!!!





Come visit La Bocana

I think the Mexico standard was 1.5 meters!

No, they did not have enough distance between folks but at least everyone was outside.

Edit to add that no one is deathly sick with Covid here. Quite astounding that MANY got covid but recovered quickly. Two seniors died in our community of 1600.

That is not the case in Brazil where the nightmare is atrocious.

One more reason for me to wish that I was in La Bocana! Here on Cape Cod my wife and I become eligible tomorrow, but a shortage of the vaccine has made it extremely difficult to get an appointment.

The expats at Asuncion are getting vaccinated tomorrow in Vizcaino. The vaccine will be Sinovac, from China. The reports of it's efficacy are all over the place but the most recent from Turkey (phase 3 trial) is 83%. Earlier Brazil claimed 50%. United Emirates was 92%. I'm thinking Brazil has it's own variant of the virus which the vaccine is less effective. Well, we'll use what there is. Johnson and Johnson is in the same ballpark and is now used in the States.

J&J says it is 100% effective at stopping hospitalizations and deaths.

Over here, most all the vaccines for Mexicans have been Pfizer. Mexico certainly has quite a variety.

In AZ, most everyone I know who has driven up and gotten it, it was all Moderna.

A girl that works for me in Texas is getting vaccinated on Wednesday. She is in her early 30's.

She said they aren't promoting it for that age group, but if you ask for it they will provide it. Thought that was cool.

It's the opposite situation here on Cape Cod, where there are more people clamoring to be vaccinated than there are available doses. The state of Massachusetts only has one mass vaccination site on the Cape, leaving residents to scramble to make appointments with pharmacies and health providers via websites that are often overwhelmed. It's a bit like the Hunger Games, but instead of people shooting at one another, they're all tripping over one other to be shot!

Just got my Sinovac vaccine jab this morning. It wasn’t very painful but my eyes seem to be narrowing.

Got my Pfizer shot yesterday afternoon. I heard from other people in line that they had extra vaccine available and would do shots until they were gone for anybody. They were not supposed to do the Pfizer because of refrigeration requirements, but that is what they were using here in Los Barriles.

Sounds like Baja is getting blanketed pretty good.
