- Santa Fe applied 82,471 influenza doses in the first nine days since March 10, a 234.9% increase over the same 2025 period, and fully distributed its initial national shipment.
- Mendoza began its campaign on March 2, a week earlier than usual, and heavy early turnout left some public centers and pharmacies temporarily without doses.
- Provincial health officials in Mendoza are reallocating stock to higher-demand sites, drawing on supplies sent by the national Ministry of Health.
- The head of the provincial pharmacists’ association reported commercial supply gaps because wholesalers have not yet received vaccines from laboratories.
- Public vaccination targets high‑risk groups at no cost, and officials expect H3N2 subclade K to dominate winter circulation, with Mendoza reporting the most Cuyo notifications and the first seasonal death.
