Boticaria Garcia arrived at the whole of ‘zap‘(The Sixth) with homework done. At a time when we are starting to talk about an “epidemic phase” regarding the flu virus, the whistleblower I wanted to respond to … main questions raised by this season, with a particular focus on the vaccine. She tried to calm things down and avoid alarmism: “Tranquility is not an epidemic. The vaccine is still the best tool and the flu is always a little unpredictable, so don’t worry. »
THE pharmaceuticalexpert in nutrition and scientific dissemination, speaks forcefully on this subject: “It is worth getting vaccinated. Vaccination remains the most effective means of prevention today, even if there is a new variant, one that spreads particularly quickly. And for example, a button. Boticaria García shared some of the data processed in the United Kingdom, where the figures reveal that the vaccine has reduced hospitalization in children it is between 70 and 75% and in adults it has fallen to levels of 30 to 40%.
Among this year’s new products in terms of flu medications, two important points that he wanted to highlight Marian Garcia: “The vaccine is recommended for all children aged 6 to 59 months, or five years, and for the first time it is systematically recommended to the population of children and adolescents, to all children and adolescents, from between 5 and 17 years oldeven if they have no previous pathology. Now the recommendation to get this vaccine attempts to cover a larger portion of the population who might be considered vulnerable.
Inhaled vaccine “only for” and “of”
The other big news in 2025 regarding the flu vaccine is the possibility of giving the inhaled flu vaccine to children. from two years. There is a “but” to take into account, explained the collaborator, namely that the contraindication concerns minors who live with people at risk, vulnerable groups, such as the elderly or those suffering from serious pathologies. “This is because the vaccine contains live attenuated viruses that remain in the nasal mucosa. So, if the child sneezes and the grandfather passes by, for example, there could be a risk, in the first days, that he expels the virus through the nasal passages» and this would cause danger for cohabitants at risk. “In these environments, it is better to get vaccinated, as always,” he said.
Boticaria Garcia took advantage of his visit to the set of ‘zap» to recommend formulas to strengthen the immune system and respond better in these situations. The first thing, always, “get vaccinated”. “There is no miracle supplement that does what the vaccine does.” He added the importance of sleeping, of resting well, which improves the body and its defenses. To this, he added physical exercise, “because it helps mobilize white blood cells”. Moderate exercise is equivalent to having a “powerful shield” against viruses. Other helps start with “managing stress, socializing, having a good routine, exercise and sports, among others.”
