There are grounds to believe that the number of people vaccinated against Covid-19 by the end of the second quarter of 2021 will achieve herd immunity, informed Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki. By the end of the second quarter, a total of 23-24 million vaccinations are to be carried out.
"We finally have reason to believe that there will be so many vaccinated people by the end of the second quarter of 2021, that experts say that we will achieve or start to reach the level of herd immunity. Maybe even earlier, but it seems that by the end of the second quarter it is highly probable," Morawiecki said during the press conference.
Earlier, the prime minister announced 20 million vaccinations by the end of Q2.
"Today I can say, after recent discussions with the European Commission, that it will be more than 23 or 24 million vaccinations," he stressed.
He informed that in the second quarter of 2021, as many as 4.5 million Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines will be delivered to Poland.
