This Saturday, February 28th, marks the final day of the extended health fair schedule.
 
Chikungunya Vaccination
Mirassol was the first city in Brazil to begin offering vaccinations against chikungunya, with the campaign launching on February 2nd. The vaccine was developed by Valneva, in partnership with the Butantan Institute, with support from Funfarme and the Mirassol City Hall.
 
As of the latest data, 3,210 residents have received the chikungunya vaccine. The vaccine is recommended for individuals between the ages of 18 and 59 and was approved by the National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) in April 2025, with strategic implementation in select municipalities.
