Volunteering participation by the Puerto Vallarta City Council and the Welfare Secretariat is vital for registration, logistics, and above all providing large volumes of vaccination, added Dr. Barraza.
One area was protected by Municipal Civil Protection and Firefighters, while it supported Social Development, Traffic, and Public Safety personnel, since “it is vital for the safety of all of us who participate,” he said.
He also highlighted the participation of the Armed Forces in the protection and application of the biological. The immunization will continue this Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, but at the current rate, it is expected to conclude before the established period.
