Juan José Llambías Peláez, director of the Provincial Center for Hygiene, Epidemiology and Microbiology, explained to Adelante that it is mainly applied to those over the age of sixty, as they are more vulnerable, “it stimulates the thymus, the gland that generates lymphocytes, important in the fight against other diseases such as hepatitis ”.

The BM T, added Yulieski Lazo Ibarra, head of nursing at the "Manuel Ramón Silva", is applied twice a week for a month and a half: "It is made up of thymus hormones, lacks toxicity, does not produce alterations in the organs and tissues or negative interference in the functions of the fundamental systems, so it is recommended in elderly people ”.

Its application demonstrates the concern of the State and the public health system for the elderly and other vulnerable groups in the peculiar context of confronting SARS-CoV-2.
