Nuevo Laredo conducts free vaccination drive for influenza and COVID-19

The municipal government of Nuevo Laredo, led by Mayor Carmen Lilia Canturosas Villarreal, conducted a free vaccination campaign to protect residents ahead of the autumn-winter season. The drive, held at the Esteban Baca Calderón esplanade, utilized a drive-thru format to facilitate access for citizens arriving by car, on foot, or via public transport.

A total of 1,275 doses were administered to 874 beneficiaries. The breakdown of vaccines included 874 doses for influenza, 220 Pfizer COVID-19 doses, and 181 doses for pneumococcus. The initiative was coordinated through the Municipal Health Directorate and the Secretariat of Social Welfare to ensure preventive healthcare services remain accessible without financial barriers.
