The president of the College of Physicians of Las Palmas, Pedro Cabrera, is confident that if the vaccination continues its current course, in two months the pandemic will be "almost resolved." In addition, he has pointed out that the number of deaths and hospital pressure should already be taken into account ahead of the accumulated incidence.
Regarding the infections that are occurring among the young population, Cabrera has clarified that when a vaccinated young person tests positive and has to be admitted, the case is subsequently studied and "the reason is found", stating that there are people who have an immune system "of low quality" but who have "never" faced a serious infectious disease, so until that moment it is a "normal person" at the health level.
"When these cases, which are very mediatic, are analyzed, doctors are used to the fact that when we study it through analytics there is always a basic defect, there is an immune defect and, whoever has it, unfortunately pays for it even when vaccinated," the president said in some conferences of the College.
Regarding the growing presence of the Delta variant of the coronavirus in the Canary Islands, Cabrera has clarified that all variants are covered by the vaccine. "There are speculations that the variants are not covered; the vaccines are designed for a part of the virus that is common to all of them," he concluded.
