“According to the declarations received by us, 3.4 million vaccinations per month will be possible,” informed the head of the Chancellery of the Prime Minister, Michał Dworczyk.
Over 8,000 vaccination teams ensure the possibility of vaccinating 3.4 million people a month – this is, according to government representatives, the possibilities of the health care system. These figures are based on the number of submissions to the immunization program.
Healthcare professionals will be vaccinated first. Hospitals must prepare their lists by December 16.
"On December 15 or 16 we will present a map of vaccination points. It will probably not be the final map yet, because we will probably modify it. Until then, we will decide to include temporary hospitals as mass vaccination points. We will determine which of them will be included as mass vaccination points," Dworczyk explained.
After health care workers, in the next stage, employees and residents of social welfare homes, the elderly over 60, as well as uniformed services will be vaccinated. The third stage is to vaccinate non-medical personnel exposed to contact with the sick, such as teachers, employees of the critical sector, public transport, and people under 60 who have comorbidities.
