Where do I get vaccinated against measles? Here's how to locate your center through the Government portal
The Mexican Ministry of Health has launched a website to help citizens find the nearest vaccination centers against measles, with over 21,000 available starting next Monday.
The Mexican government, through the Ministry of Health, is taking significant measures to increase vaccination against measles due to growing concerns about the virus. To facilitate access, they have launched a new website specifically designed to help users locate over 21,000 vaccination modules that will be operational starting next Monday. The site, dondemevacuno.salud.gob.mx, allows individuals to select options based on vaccine type, location, municipality, and age group, providing a user-friendly experience for finding vaccination centers.
Upon entering the website, users are greeted with the main question, "Where do I get vaccinated?" This is followed by an interactive menu enabling them to specify their needs in order to retrieve relevant results. A comprehensive map will then display all the vaccination sites pertinent to the criteria they have chosen. Each listed location provides crucial details such as the exact address, operational hours mostly from 8 AM to 8 PM on weekdays, as well as the specific type of vaccine available, ensuring that citizens can plan their vaccination trips efficiently.
Moreover, the inclusion of a Google Maps link for each vaccination site enhances accessibility, making it easier for users to navigate to their chosen center. This proactive approach by the government represents a commitment to public health amidst a backdrop of heightened awareness and concern regarding measles outbreaks, emphasizing the importance of vaccination in safeguarding community health.
