Dr. Alejandro from Paradise Medical returns to the Nosara Podcast to share updates about covid post Semana Santa in Nosara. Below are my notes from the conversation.
- 2021 different
- Covid slowed down compared to initial fear
- In last week steady growth of cases including nosara
- Reports seems incorrect 7 new cases alone which probably means 20 to 30 infections
- Is time to be aware and take proper measures (masks, distancing, etc)
- if symptoms stay please at home
- With rainy season starting more cases of normal flu
- What’s going on with testing these days?
- Antigen test issues
- PCR higher standard
- What are updates on vaccinations in Costa Rica?
- Being registered at EBAIS
- Alejandro’s vaccination experience between 2 shots
- Over 1 million doses of Pfizer brought in so far
- Definite spike in cases; be careful
- July September possible availability multiple options
- Even if vaccinated can still get covid
- Brazilian and UK mutation is most popular strains of covid now
