The European Commission attributes the new wave of coronavirus to unvaccinated people

The European Commissioner for Health, Stella Kyriakides, has insisted before the European Parliament that vaccines are effective in preventing deaths.

The European Commission insisted yesterday, Monday, that the increase in coronavirus infections is mainly, but not exclusively, due to unvaccinated people or partially vaccinated. The European Commissioner for Health, Stella Kyriakides, has ratified before the plenary session of the European Parliament that the vaccine is the most effective tool to deal with the coronavirus.

Stella Kyriakides has recognized that the current situation is worrying and has taken the opportunity to share the message that vaccines protect against serious illness, hospitalization and even death. Therefore, it has made a call for vaccination.

Despite the effectiveness of the vaccines, the Health Commissioner has stressed that this does not imply abandoning the preventive hygiene and social distancing measures, including a mask. In his opinion, this type of behavior will continue to be needed until member states achieve higher vaccination rates and the pandemic is “under control”.

Faced with the new wave of coronavirus in the EU, the commissioner has urged to “avoid fragmentation” between countries due to restrictions to deal with covid-19. With this objective, the European Commission is preparing new travel recommendations that it will present this week and that will take into account the important role that the covid certificate plays.

Follow the recommendationss in the face of the coronavirus from the health authorities. If you live in the CAV and have symptoms, call your usual health center. The Health Council will also attend to people on the phone 900 20 30 50, offering information and solving doubts about the coronavirus. If you live in Navarra, call the Health Council phone number: 948 290 290. Remember that the most effective way to prevent the spread of covid-19 is to use a mask, ventilate the spaces, keep a safe distance and wash your hands.
