The Municipal Secretariat of Health promoted the vaccination campaign respecting the criteria established by the Ministry of Health. According to the Business Sustainability Superintendent, Gabriela Campagna, the campaign was only possible thanks to the support of the other institutions involved. “The action was only possible with the unity and total support of the entities involved, which provided human resources and support throughout the execution aimed at immunizing a larger number of the public in less time and not increasing the demand at health posts,” said Campagna.

In the state of Rio de Janeiro, there have been 888,000 cases of Covid-19, with 826,000 recoveries and 51,865 deaths caused by the coronavirus.
