No joke. The vaccine comes from Europe, and Sector Salud, will be distributing it to local health agencies like IMSS and Seguro Popular. The first shipment is from SANOFI a highly reputable European pharmaceutical manufacturer. Supposed to prevent deadly hemorrhagic dengue by almost 90%.

Not given to anyone over 40.


There is little if any threat of Dengue in cities and large towns due to mosquito abatement controls. I haven't heard of a case in Zihuatanejo or Ixtapa in decades, but for us rural "Bulls-Eyes" the new vaccine should be a blessing.

jajaja I know at least 10 personal friends, myself included in the last two years.

Tourists are ineligible, as they do not need it.

That's right, the mosquitos would not bite a tourist.
