For San Miguelito, 19 centers with 94 vaccination tables were established for the 9 townships.

VERIFICATION METHODS

Luis Oliva, administrator of the Government Innovation Authority (AIG), explained that all those people in the 8-6 circuit, who registered in the vaccination portal, will receive an email indicating the center, the date and the time you will receive your vaccination. They ask to be punctual.

To verify where you should be vaccinated, you can enter the Vaccines menu of the Panama Solidario page, and click on the VERIFICATE section where you will be asked for identification number and date of birth.

Likewise, it can be verified in ROSA menu 5, or call Line 177, which will be activated from next Tuesday, March 2.

The vaccination centers coincide with the voting centers in the elections.

VACCINE APPLICATION

Once it is verified, you will arrive at the vaccination center on the date that corresponds to you and will be attended by a counselor who will take you to one of the rooms where the vaccination tables are located. A traceability officer will ask for your identity card, read it on a device, update the vaccinometer and fill in the information within Panama Digital.

After this, you will go to a nurse to be vaccinated; later in time you will have to wait a certain time in case you have any type of allergic reaction and then you can withdraw it.

The Panama Digital platform will issue a vaccination card that will detail the batch, place, date and manufacturer of the vaccine that was applied and the date on which the second dose will correspond.

A total of 500 thousand people have registered to be vaccinated. Of that total, 168 thousand have some chronic disease, of which 109 thousand have been found in the public health system.

To date, more than 92 thousand people have been immunized against the coronavirus in Panama.
