Today December 16, 2021 is the first day of vaccinations for children aged 5 to 11 years also in Naples about 5000 have booked to receive the anti-Covid vaccine both at school and in various vaccination hubs.
It is important to be able to immunize even the smallest ones since the cases of infections are increasing, but let's see how the operation is progressing in our city.
The hub of the Mostra d'Oltremare with a playground: here are days and times
The vaccination hub of the Mostra d'Oltremare today 16 December is reserved for vaccinations for children between 5 and 11 years in the hours from 9.00 am to 18.00 pm, while it will be dedicated to them again Friday from 14.00 to 18.00 e Saturday 18 December all day from 9.00 to 18.00.
A nice playground to make the atmosphere even more relaxing for the children, a very special nice entertainment for all the children who will wait for their dose. In addition, a large was also decorated Christmas tree.
The other vaccination centers: days and opening times
Children can also be vaccinated in other hubs in the city and its surroundings, as well as in all health districts.
Our ASL health districts are active today 16 December from 9.00 to 18.00 and then from Monday to Friday from 14.00 to 20.00 and on Saturday from 9.00 to 14.00.
A Capri, in the vaccination center of the San Costanzo tent, you can go today 16 December from 9.00 to 17.00 and on Friday from 14.00 to 17.00. Here, too, there will be special entertainment for the little ones.
Vaccination in schools: how reservations work
The Campania Region had also foreseen that the schools that decided to join would be vaccination centers for the little ones. In this way, children will be able to get vaccinated in a more familiar environment and in any case always in the presence of a pediatrician.
To join, i parents will have to consult the websites of the individual schools and fix the calendar according to the indications given. Once the date has been chosen, the child will come with the parents and the dose will be made by the pediatric nurse in the presence of a doctor who will make the anamnesis.
Which schools have joined
At the moment few have decided to join and for the first day only the Vittorino da Feltre of the Villa district in San Giovanni a Teduccio. Here the teachers have also organized a special project with a profound social and anti-Camorra meaning: in fact, together with the children, they have drawn faces of boys and girls on sheets of paper with the inscription of the vaccination and they cut them in the shape of a shirt to hang them right inside the school. It is a reference to what are the "stretched out”Of the Camorra, that is, those episodes in which gunshots are fired in the air madly to give warnings. The only "spread" that you want, however, are those with the faces of the little ones who smile and are vaccinated.
In the San Giovanni school 40 children will be vaccinated and the teachers have tried to convince as many parents as possible to have their children vaccinated.
In the next few days there will be open day at the 55th “Piscicelli” club and at the “Minucci” at Arenella, as well as at the “Cuoco-Schipa” in the historic center.
Vaccines also in the ASL and at pediatricians
Children can also be vaccinated in moles ASL health districts and at the pediatricians who have decided to join the vaccination campaign.
Which vaccine will be used
As mentioned, it is one pediatric formulation, therefore a reduced dose compared to that given to adults, and the Pfizer vaccine.
In Naples 156000 doses were delivered for children and 156780 for adults as well.
The numbers of membership
Initially the membership was not what we wanted because it was hoped that a greater number of children he would have booked to join this important vaccination campaign, even if we remember that booking is not mandatory to go to the hubs so the number of those who show up could increase in the coming days.
In fact, at the moment we know the number of those who have booked between hubs and schools, but it is hoped that many others will show up despite not having booked in the next few days.
In short, after all, we can consider the numbers encouraging.
