Prime Minister Mirtha Vasquez on Thursday called on the population to receive the three doses of the vaccine against coronavirus due to the increase in Omicron variant cases in Peru.
After receiving the booster dose at Juan Pablo II (John Paul II) Maternal and Child Center in Lima's Villa El Salvador district, the Cabinet chief asserted that vaccines are currently available and indicated that authorities should lead by example, which means getting vaccinated.
"I go to get vaccinated as a sign of what we, authorities, have to do, (which is to) set the example that we must fight this pandemic, and that means completing the vaccine cycle," she remarked.
