Preguntas frecuentes Is the use of Abdala being evaluated in the pediatric population?
Vaccinating the Cuban pediatric population is an objective of our vaccines and for this we have been developing the Ismaelillo trial, with the Abdala vaccine. In that study, two strengths or concentrations have been evaluated. The vaccine in adults has 50 micrograms, and in children we are evaluating 25 and 50 micrograms, since the immune response of children should almost always be higher and more homogeneous than when speaking of an open adult population, which is very large, of 19 years old and more. Vaccination of the pediatric population is essential. As time passes, more adults will be vaccinated, and it is highly probable, and some indications are already being seen, that the highest number of infected is precisely in these unvaccinated populations. In addition, we would like to vaccinate our children as soon as possible so that they can go to schools and parks.
