The Secretary of Health of Guanajuato reached an advance of over 87% of the goal established for 2026 with the application in different biologicals of 369,381 doses of the basic vaccination schedule.
The Secretary of Health of Guanajuato, Gabriel Cortes Alcala, reminded everyone that vaccination coverage protects the population and contains diseases that can generate outbreaks and especially affect those who do not have complete vaccination schedules.
The doses are free and are administered at People’s Health Centers on a scheduled basis throughout the year.
In the BCG vaccine that prevents tuberculosis, 36,523 doses have been applied, representing 85 percent progress with respect to the established goal, strengthening the protection of girls and boys from the early stages of life.
For Hepatitis B, 28,053 doses have been administered, equivalent to 66 percent progress. This biological vaccine has the lowest percentage of coverage, so efforts are underway to recover the target.
The third dose of the Hexavalent vaccine has registered 39,991 applications, reaching 93 percent progress, a result that contributes to protect girls and boys against various diseases through a single immunization strategy.
In the second dose of Rotavirus, the Secretary of Health reports 36,360 doses administered, corresponding to 85 percent progress, strengthening the prevention of gastrointestinal diseases during the first months of life.

The Hexavalent booster vaccine has registered 39,254 doses administered, with 91 percent progress; the continuity of the vaccination schedules allows for strengthening the immune response and maintaining adequate protection during childhood development.
In Pneumococcal 13V and 20V booster vaccines, 36,876 doses have been applied, reaching 86 percent progress.
In Tdap, 30,950 doses have been applied, corresponding to 90 percent progress.
