Covid Info from El Pais

 Copied this from El Pais for information


Those vaccinated who have had contact with a case of coronavirus will not have to quarantine, but they will have to undergo tests to detect if they have contracted covid-19.

Health has announced that the 10 days of isolation will no longer be a requirement for those who have injected the two doses (or one if the drug is Janssen's) if they have contact with a positive for covid-19. A person is also considered to have the full regimen if they have passed the disease and are then inoculated with a single dose of the drugs from two injections —Moderna, AstraZeneca, and Pfizer-BioNTech.

Although vaccinated people are not required to isolate themselves, they will have to undergo tests to detect if they have contracted the infection. Health specifies that it will be required "to carry out a PCR at the beginning and another seven days after the last contact with the confirmed case." Vaccinated people have a very low chance of developing severe symptoms of the coronavirus, but they can spread it to others if they have contact with the virus. They can infect even without developing symptoms and once immunized. However, its ability to spread is less than that of unvaccinated people, as a study carried out in the United Kingdom with statistics of 1.5 million people has shown.

Health recommends to those immunized who have contact with a positive "avoid contact with vulnerable and unvaccinated people." In addition, the ministry adds, "they will be instructed to use a mask in their social interactions, not attend mass events and monitor the possible appearance of compatible symptoms."

Railway Progress

As, those of you who are members of the Railway Association, will know things are moving along very nicely now with our exciting plans for the Railway Station in Alfoquia. 

Rafa and Max, who are the two people most driving the progress, are going to be at the Renfe from 1100 this Friday. They are hoping to have the bobcat there and to identify the location of the railway tracks. (which they will be later restoring in the hope of future use.).

If this project goes as well, as I now think it will (after a hiatus of years!), it will bring a huge attraction to the village and cement its place in history. 

Rafa and Max are asking if you have any time or interest in the railway you can join them after 1100 this Friday and maybe go for a beer after. 

So if you can pop along and find out more from the guys, you will be most welcome.
