La incorporación de la vacunación antigripal anual al Calendario Nacional de Vacunación en Argentina, mediante la Resolución ministerial 35/2011, con el propósito de disminuir la internación, complicaciones, secuelas y mortalidad en la población en riesgo en Argentina, comprende como población objetivo a los niños de seis a veinticuatro meses, embarazadas, madres de niños menores de seis meses y personal de salud. Se ha dado continuidad, además, a la estrategia de vacunación para personas entre dos y 64 años con factores de riesgo y para todos los mayores de 65 años.
Durante el año 2013, se continuó con la vacunación antigripal, iniciando la misma en el mes de marzo.
En la Figura 1 se presenta las coberturas alcanzadas por grupo de riesgo, que fueron muy satisfactorias en el personal de salud y embarazadas; requiriendo mejorar las coberturas en el grupo pediátrico.
En embarazadas se lograron coberturas totales de 94,1%. La Figura 2 muestra las coberturas en embarazadas alcanzadas a los 6 meses de inicio de la vacunación y el avance de la inmunización en este grupo hasta enero de 2014, al prolongarse el periodo de la vacunación, motivo por el cual se superó el 100% de cobertura en algunas jurisdicciones (Figura 2).
