The 10 milligram vaccine of Pfizer for children 5 to 11 years old can not come to our country earlier than December 20, said the general secretary of Primary Health Care, Marios Themistokleous, citing his communications with the pharmaceutical giant.
The first receipt of the vaccine will take place from December 20 and after the vaccination, at the earliest.
Mr. Themistocleous noted that 79.2% of the adult population has been vaccinated with at least one dose of the vaccine.
74.6% of the adult population has completed the vaccination compared to 77% of the adult population in the EU.
Forty percent of booster recipients have been vaccinated, while 25.4% have scheduled a third dose. Thus, in total, 65% of the beneficiaries of the third installment have been vaccinated or have made an appointment.
In addition, more than 100,000 people will be able to be vaccinated daily in December, said Marios Themistokleous. “Of the 1,500 vaccination centers that started operating in September, another 800 have been added and soon we will be at 2300 vaccination centers, while their schedule will be extended for more and more vaccinations,” added Mr. Themistokleous.
He added that in December there will be a possibility of vaccination on Sundays. Holidays for vaccinations will be the 25th and 26th of December, but also the New Year.
It should be noted that EODY announced 104 deaths of the coronavirus, 6,677 new cases and 657 intubated.
