“They take good care of me at home and I also take care not to get sick. That is why it is very good that today they are giving us the vaccine, because we are old and we need it. We do not want to get sick, or infect my children and grandchildren” , he indicated.

Finally, Burgos and Burgos thanked the arrival of the vaccine for the elderly in their municipality. “It is nice to see that they are concerned and have us pending. I hope that soon everyone can be vaccinated, we are fortunate to be protected.”

 Accompanied by her husband, Laureano Mex Canché, 70 years old, who was also vaccinated this day, Puc Canché said that she returns home feeling more protected and less concerned about her health, but that does not mean that she will lower her guard, but rather he will take care of himself more.
