go to original January 7, 2022

Do you already have your vaccination certificate? Soon this document that proves you are protected against COVID-19 could be required in Jalisco.

The governor of the state, Enrique Alfaro Ramírez, commented that the Jalisco State Health Board will bring forward its meeting to next Monday, January 10, and some of the topics to be discussed will be the date for the return to classes and the possibility of limiting access to public places, leisure areas and places of great affluence, to those who still do not have their respective vaccinations against Covid-19.

"We have to prepare things for the return to school, we are now focused on the reinforcement for medical personnel and for teachers that will begin in a few days," said Enrique Alfaro.

Although the vaccination of teachers that would begin in Jalisco at the beginning of next week has been affected by the delays in the delivery of vaccines by the pharmaceutical companies in the United States, the state president pointed out that this process will be completed before the teachers return to classes.

For this process, the Board of Health is already managing the opening of two new vaccination modules in plants of the University of Guadalajara, being already agreed that one of them will be installed in the CUCEI, while the second one is still in negotiations.

Regarding the requirement of the vaccination certificate in leisure activities that take place in Jalisco, Enrique Alfaro explained that the way to make the filters would be to leave out of the places of the massive events those who do not have this document that for months has been issued by the Ministry of Health of the Federal Government through its web portal cvcovid.salud.gob.mx to those who have already completed their vaccination schedule.
