The vaccination schedule in Spain enters a new phase in which new groups of people will begin to receive doses of the drug against covid-19. The national vaccination strategy began in January with the inoculation of residents and staff of first-line health and social care centers for the elderly and later this month of March it was the turn of those over 80 years of age and large dependents whose vaccination will be extended during April.

Those over 70 and people at risk - with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, with a solid organ transplant and a waiting list for this, with oncohematological disease or with lung cancer or solid organ cancer under treatment with chemotherapy or immunotherapy, in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis or with Down syndrome over 40 years old, among others, are the next to receive the vaccine against covid-19 between April and May.
